Have you heard about Phishing?

Phishing is a type of cybercrime in which criminals use e-mail, as well as other social media channels as its object. Phishing is created to steal important information about someone or an organization such as personal and financial information. Those information are used for various purposes, from stealing personal identities for negative purposes, financial information, crippling down computer systems to stealing other sensitive information related to security.

How to Protect Your Business from Phishing Scams

An organization has to think about their strategy to protect their business continuity from phishing scams. They can start from creating awareness to their employee about the dangers of phishing scams, and also prioritizing security as the result of internet freedom. Organizations can arrange the early action to protect their business from phishing scams, such as reevaluating every email they receive.

1. Reevaluating every information you receive

It is very important to evaluate every email you receive, because hackers are using email as an object to do their action. Phishing emails are often riddled with both grammar and punctuation. Bad grammar is a sign of phishing scams. In addition, recheck the listed links in your email to make sure it is official.

You also need to concern about every request for information related to your company’s credentials, such as financial information. Requesting sensitive information will not be simply requested, especially if it is related to your company credentials.
