Topic Abstract:
Amid the outbreak of COVID-19, many businesses have been forced to move their workforce to work from home. However, not many organizations are equipped to deal with the risks of remote working. In addition to that, there are plenty of cybercriminals looking to take advantage of the situation.
As per reports, there has been a 400 percent rise in phishing campaigns in the last month. Attackers are preying on people’s emotions and taking advantage of the widespread discussion of COVID-19 in emails and across the web.
In this webinar, we will discuss the different types of COVID-19 related phishing scams that have risen over the past month, and the steps that should be taken to ensure that your employees don’t fall prey to them.
