WEBINAR DETAILS
The previous year saw social engineering attacks increase in both volume and sophistication. The perpetrators of social engineering (SE) attacks are smart, motivated, and persistent. Phishing emails are by far the predominant SE security breach, but the last year also saw deepfakes (a type of artificial intelligence) being used to create convincing images, audio, and video hoaxes. By using artificial, enhanced voice simulation, fraudsters stole $35 million from a bank in the United Arab Emirates. COVID-19 has forced many institutions to close lobbies for extended periods of time and this has contributed to an uptick in successful onsite SE exploits. A combination of multiple types of SE attacks spread over time has contributed to an increase in SE-related losses. Join this insightful webinar to learn how to confront these threats.
