Protect Yourself from Email Thread Hijacking

Do you keep your online accounts on lockdown? Awesome! 💪 But....online safety isn't just about you - it's about the people you connect with, too. Imagine if your vendors, coworkers, or friends get hacked—cyber criminals can silently creep in and eavesdrop, and worse pose as your connection to trick you into giving out info or taking action you'd never do if you didn't trust the communication.

Make sure your employees know the signs to watch for even when corresponding through existing email threads.

 

 

Real Life ChatGPT Scam

A phishing email for ChatGPT wouldn't tell you to "please refrain from entering sensitive information when using the tool", right? If it was a scam, why would they encourage good online safety behavior - except that's exactly what happened. This real-life scam imitated a work email to give it credibility but pushed users to download a browser extension as a work benefit. And that's where it goes downhill.

Help employees learn the importance of treating browser extensions like any other app and run it by IT before downloading anything.

Community Live Stream: Game of Managing Human Risk

Does 'risk management' or 'knowledge transfer' best describe your security awareness program? At the end of the day, it's more than just what people know, it's what they do that matters. Our most recent livestream hosted Alexandra Panaretos who walked us through how managing human risk is different from traditional security awareness models.
 
Sometimes the solutions don't have to be as technology heavy as we think - effective risk management is built on listening and adjusting, sometimes even as simple as changing out a simple word.
