Phishing attacks are on the increase, with recent reports suggesting that 1 in 5 phishing emails reach staff inboxes. Attackers are becoming more sophisticated and dodging Microsoft’s platform defences and finding new ways to trick you and your team into clicking a link or opening an attachment.
As with most things, prevention is better than cure when it comes to phishing emails. The better trained you and your staff are, the less likely they are to open a fake email.
The business owner’s guide to phishing is designed to give you practical, free advice on how to avoid the pitfalls.
Educate yourself and your team about phishing attacks:
- What they look like
- How to spot them
- What can happen if you click the link or download the file
Get this right and you have a much better chance of avoiding attacks.
