How to Protect Your Business from Email Compromise Attacks

Business email compromise (BEC) is one of the leading forms of cyber crime. Cyber criminals use a variety of techniques, both technological and psychological, to try to manipulate people to reveal, send, download, or click on something in an email that they shouldn’t. BEC allows criminals to redirect funds or make phony transactions, steal personal information to exploit the business or its clients, and even launch more harmful cyber-attacks with toxic attachments.

As threat actors develop more sophisticated attack methods, your business must implement better ways of defending against them; technology solutions to detect and eliminate threats, and education to improve your staff’s ability to identify BEC attempts.
