Did you know that any organization, regardless of its size and the number of in-house security personnel employed, can now automatically prevent, detect and respond to all types of sophisticated phishing techniques in real-time?
Email security has evolved from rules-based spam filters into advanced anti phishing threat protection platforms that combine human intelligence with machine learning.
As email phishing grows more sophisticated and remains a primary attack vector for data breaches, many security providers are attempting to step up their solutions to better mitigate risk. Microsoft is no exception, as the tech giant continues to invest in its Office 365 Advanced Threat Protection, which it proclaims to provide protection, detection and response to “unknown and sophisticated attacks.”
Major vulnerability allows spear-phishing emails to bypass Gmail’s anti-phishing SPF security in business email compromise (BEC) attack
Phishing emails have evolved into complex threats due to business email compromise, polymorphic attacks and fileless messages that gateways cannot protect.
From small businesses to federal agencies and Fortune 500s, no one is immune from the risk of a cyberattack. And as we’ve written about extensively before, phishing remains the primary enabler of most attacks, and sophisticated hackers can now generate fraudulent messages that are almost impossible to identify.
Phishing is something that just doesn’t seem to want to go away. With the first phishing email believed to have been sent in the mid 1990’s, most people did not realise the existence of phishing until the ‘Love Bug’ scam struck in 2000, when a simple email attachment infected approximately 45 million computers worldwide.
By many measures, 2017 was a rough year for cybersecurity with large, brazen phishing attacks negatively impacting governments and companies around the world. Even some of the most supposedly cyber-secure organizations such as Google, Yahoo, Verizon, Virgin America and Equifax fell victim
We’ve written a lot this past year on employee security awareness training, including how to measure ROI; how it must work in tandem with machine learning technology
Last December, we proclaimed 2016 to be the year in which phishing went mainstream. Fast-forward just six months into 2017, and it already appears that
