Protect Your Staff from Phishing Attacks with Discounted Training

Phishing attacks are growing and getting more sophisticated. Until recently, you could immediately spot an email that was a phishing attempt due to the bad spelling and grammar used.

Today, the attackers have stepped up their game with emails that look very professional with good (stolen) graphics and presentation. These phishing emails can lead to login information being stolen from personal or professional websites, money being stolen from your bank accounts, sensitive internal company data being leaked and ransomware attacks that disable your company’s computers and servers.

How can you protect your organization from these attacks? Running quality anti-malware software and having good perimeter protection are helpful, but these alone are not enough as they rely on known signatures for the malicious software being installed. Many of the emails will also link to a fake login page then redirect to a site such as your bank where they can steal the login data.

Companies need to make their staff the first line of defense. One way to do this is by requiring them to participate in good quality, engaging and interactive training sessions on how to spot these attacks. There are several companies that offer this service. Invoice Cloud has used a company called KnowBe4 to train our staff and we have been very happy with the results.
