Phishing remains the top method for cyber breaches, urging organizations to implement effective employee training initiatives.
Training should be interactive, role-specific, and simulate actual attacks employees might face daily.
Five real-world phishing scenarios are detailed, including AI-enhanced emails referencing specific projects, fake admin login pages, voice phishing with AI-synthesized voices, RAT malware disguised as helpful tools, and QR code phishing.
Simulations aim to educate employees on verifying sender domains, the limitations of MFA, critical thinking on unusual requests, verifying downloads with IT, and caution with QR codes.
The importance of realistic training to prepare employees for evolving phishing tactics is emphasized.
