Every October, security-minded organizations around the world turn their focus toward security awareness to promote the power of a strong security culture to protect systems, data, and people.
Let Us Lead You Past the Hazards of Social Engineering.
Obstacles To Overcome as You Build a Culture of Security
At this year's Cybersecurity Awareness Month Summit, we'll explore social engineering attacks that create obstacles for your organization’s security and target the human attack surface. We’ll help you understand where these obstacles appear on your Security Journey®, what hazards may be hidden along the way, and what survival tactics your employees and leaders can deploy to reduce human risk.

Obstacle 01:
Phishing
Phishing is a constant threat for organizations, as luring credentials away from employees can give threat actors easy access to your environment and allow them to launch sophisticated attacks.
Hidden Hazard:
AI-enabled phishing and vishing attacks
AI helps threat actors avoid tell-tale signs of phishing such as misspellings, odd syntax, or unusual requests/lack of knowledge about the target organization. Voice-cloning technology and deepfake technology help threat actors send convincing follow up vishing attacks.
Path Forward:
Expedition Guide (IT Leader)
Ensure your employees are receiving regular phishing simulations and security awareness training that discusses how AI is used in phishing and vishing attacks. Enable phishing-resistant multi-factor authentication (MFA) organization-wide.
Expedition Crew (Employees)
Double- and triple-verify odd requests that may appear in your inbox. If it looks like a phishing email, don't click on any links or respond to it. Report the email to IT.

Obstacle 02:
Business Email Compromise
BEC is a top attack type — and a costly one. As more organizations conduct financial transactions digitally, especially those in financial services, manufacturing, and legal sectors, they are at risk of falling for this email-based, threat actor favorite.

Obstacle 02:
Business Email Compromise (BEC)
BEC is a top attack type — and a costly one. As more organizations conduct financial transactions digitally, especially those in financial services, manufacturing, and legal sectors, they are at risk of falling for this email-based, threat actor favorite.
Hidden Hazard:
AI-powered BEC Attacks
Generative AI helps threat actors spin up fake invoices, convincing communication, and conduct needed research faster and more effectively, putting your team at greater risk of falling for a clever BEC scam.
Path Forward:
Expedition Guide (IT Leader)
Implement email security measures and work with a security operations provider that integrates into your email security. Ensure your organization’s security awareness training regularly discusses BEC and offers simulations that mimic common BEC tactics.
Expedition Crew (Employees)
Always be on the lookout for suspicious emails (odd request, unknown sender, new funds request that wasn’t previously discussed), verify every request, and report any suspicious emails right away.

Obstacle 03:
Compromised Credentials
Be it through phishing, data exfiltration, or successful brute-force attacks, credential compromise opens digital doors for threat actors and lets them wreak havoc on your environment while evading detection.
Hidden Hazard:
AI-assisted credential attacks
AI makes stealing credentials simple. The technology can automate credential stuffing and brute-force attacks, scan the web to find key data (and potential passwords) of an employee, or quickly decipher the most valuable credentials from a trove of stolen data.
Path Forward:
Expedition Guide (IT Leader)
Employ 24x7 monitoring of identity sources. Enforce strong password policies, enable MFA, and practice hardened identity and access management (IAM) techniques. Ensure your organization’s security awareness training discusses the risk of credential-based attacks and offers lessons to help employees protect their credentials.
Expedition Crew (Employees)
Use strong passwords that are not repeated elsewhere and are not known by anyone else. Be on the lookout for repeated MFA verification requests (a sign of MFA fatigue attacks) and odd requests for your credentials from others.
