NEW CYBERSECURITY ANALYSIS REVEALS 4 OUT OF 10 WORK EMAILS ARE UNWANTED
Commenting on the report findings, , said:
New cybersecurity trends and techniques for organisations to watch out for were also tracked. Since Microsoft disabled macros settings in Office 365, there has been a significant increase in HTML smuggling attacks using embedded LNK or ZIP files to deliver malware.
Microsoft 365 makes it easy to share documents, and end users often overlook the ramifications of how files are shared, as well as the security implications. Hornetsecurity found 25% of respondents were either unsure or assumed that Microsoft365 was immune to ransomware threats.
added:
Cyber threats go beyond email and business communication platforms, however. Brand impersonation attacks continue to rise, even on corporate social media, with LinkedIn growing to 22.4% of detected global brand impersonation threats, an increase of 3.5% compared with last year.
Cybercriminals use platforms like LinkedIn to determine job information and use this to gain access to company resources through social engineering. Organisations and their employees must always exercise caution when receiving work emails - both those that are unwanted, and those that may be from malicious impersonators.
