Consequences
Threats evolve, fast. The best security stack can only do so much if your employees aren’t trained, leading to:
- Data Breaches—Employees unaware of the newest phishing tactics can provide attackers with access to sensitive information, resulting in significant data breaches.
- Financial Loss—Successful BEC and social engineering attacks can lead to direct financial losses through fraudulent transactions, costly incident responses, and significant fines and penalties for non-compliance with regulatory requirements.
- Reputational Damage—Breaches and incidents involving employee error do more damage to customer trust and your organization's reputation than technical vulnerabilities.
