Do you really know the difference between a genuine email and a dangerous phishing email?
Every day, over 80,000 people fall victim to a phishing attack, whether that’s through spear or clone fishing, resulting in stolen identities, financial loss, credit card fraud, and other debilitating consequences. Even with this significant statistic, over 75% of corporate UK employees don’t know all variations of phishing including ransomware, and 36% cannot confidently define a phishing attack.
No matter how many technological defences and software are set up in your workplace to prevent phishing emails to your team’s inboxes, no protection method is 100% successful, as its often up to the individual to take the final action in deciding whether or not to open a phishing email or click a malicious link.
Phishing awareness training can make the difference and ultimately, improve your business’ cyber security.
Phishing is a form of cyberattack used by hackers and cybercriminals to target and steal a user’s personal data including login credentials, personal details and credit card numbers. This data can be further used for fraud, identity theft or using stolen information to make unauthorised purchases. The aim of phishing is to trick the victims into revealing important data.
A phishing attack is designed to trick victims into clicking on suspicious links that leads to a serious security breach. There are two main types of phishing attacks. The first usually involves the attacker posing as a legitimate entity requesting information from the victim such as user passwords or bank details. The second involves malware or ransomware – getting the user to click on a suspicious link that leads them to download malicious software compromising their systems.
According to the 2016 State of Cybersecurity survey, employees are the number one cause of data breaches. A workforce lacking in understanding and education is most vulnerable to phishing attacks. Gaps in knowledge and low awareness can cause employees to make mistakes, fail to spot suspicious activity and make the wrong decisions when it comes to phishing attacks.
