What is Phishing?

If you do not understand phishing, your organization is more likely to fall victim to it. The result could be a ransomware attack that brings your business to its knees or password theft that gives hackers free entry into your network.

Phishing includes a variety of simple-to-sophisticated techniques for tricking employees into viewing an email, clicking on a link, or opening an attachment containing malicious content. A phishing message may appear to come from your boss, your bank, or a trusted technology company, sent from a look-alike domain and with a forged logo.

That’s what makes it so important to train everyone in your organization about the danger and how to avoid falling victim to it. We encourage you to download and share our infographic, “What Is Phishing?” If you want to know more about how you can protect yourself and your business, we can help.
