Focus: Phishing and Social Engineering

Target Audience: All employees, from entry-level to executive.

Blog Content:
“Remember that email from the ‘CEO’ asking for an urgent gift card purchase? Or the text from ‘FedEx’ about a missed package? These aren’t just annoyances; they are phishing attacks, and you are the primary target. The good news? You are also the most powerful defence.”

Understanding the Bait:

• What is Phishing? A cybercriminal’s attempt to trick you into revealing sensitive information, clicking a malicious link, or downloading a dangerous attachment.
• Beyond Email: Be aware of Smishing (SMS phishing) and Vishing (voice phishing) via phone calls.
• The Goal: Steal your login credentials, install malware, or initiate unauthorized wire transfers.
