Phishing is an attempt to acquire sensitive information such as usernames, passwords, and credit card details by pretending to be a trustworthy entity in an electronic communication. It typically involves sending an email asking the user to click a malicious link or enter sensitive information.
Pharming is a malicious attack that redirects a user from a legitimate website to a malicious one without their knowledge, often for the purpose of stealing sensitive information. It is a more advanced form of phishing, as it does not require any interaction from the user.
