The Best Defense Against Cyber Attacks You’ve Never Heard Of...

If we learned anything from 2020, it’s that threat actors’ abilities to quickly adjust their methods to world events can be lightning fast. From Emotet to Ryuk, and let’s not forget COVID-19, Cofense and our Cofense Labs and Intelligence teams worked overtime.

In our Annual State of Phishing Report we discussed how 2020 saw an increase in both volume and variety of threat activity. Threat actors continued to advance their tactics, techniques, and procedures to ensure their emails would reach end users throughout the year.

Join Cofense CTO & Co-Founder, Aaron Higbee, and Security Solutions Advisor, Tonia Dudley, as they dive into the details of what malware phishing attacks kept the Cofense team busy and what we might see this year.

あなたの従業員は防衛戦略を成功させる鍵です

Emotetは、日本の多くの組織にとって深刻なフィッシングの脅威になっています。ボットネットはセキュアEメールゲートウェイ（SEG）を回避するように進化し、これらの高度に巧妙に細工された標的型攻撃は従業員をだまして悪意のあるメールを操ります。ネットワークは危険にさらされており、会社のセキュリティ侵害に対する露出とリスクが高まっています。

悪意のある脅威がテクノロジー(セキュリティ製品)によってブロックされていない場合、どのようにして組織を防御すれば良いでしょうか？

メールボックス内のフィッシングメールを検出して対応する方法をトレーニングすることにより、従業員を防御チームの最前線に活用しましょう。 Cofenseのセキュリティ専門家である藤田平氏がCofenseのインテリジェンスチームと研究チームによって観測された、攻撃者と長年にわたる脅威の進化についての詳細なレビューをご紹介します。

2020 has been quite the year. And it’s not over yet! If you’re still trying to get a grip on what has happened in the phishing threat landscape - from COVID-themed phishing attacks to data stealing ransomware and everything in between – you aren’t alone. We are all getting through this together and uniting to fight phishing.

Join us on 14 October at 14:00 BST to hear from Cofense Security Solutions Advisor, Tonia Dudley and Senior Director of Sales Engineering, David Mount. They’ll walk you through the threats observed by Cofense, the predictions we’re making for the remainder of the year, and the lessons we’ve learned on how to protect organizations from the phishing threats that evade perimeter defences.

• How threat actors are evolving and adapting their tactics, making it more difficult for end users to know what’s safe and what’s not.
• Expert predictions of what is coming in the remainder of 2020 and into 2021.

On Wednesday 19th August at 14:00 BST, the ISF will be joined by Cofense for cybersecurity expert insight into the challenges of defending against sophisticated phishing attacks, specifically, how to defend against the phishing email that evades your secure email gateways.

Cofense Senior Director of Sales Engineering, David Mount, and Sales Enginer, Alain Salesse, will be sharing insight into the current threat landscape as seen through the eyes of the end user and how threat actors are getting past security perimeter controls.

Phishing continues to be the most successful attack technique used by cyber criminals today. Rules-based “secure” email gateways (SEGs) have become front-line technology for catching malicious emails. However, surveys show that phishing emails regularly bypass SEGs, leaving organizations more exposed to compromise.

In this webinar, listen in as Ed Amoroso, CEO & Analyst at TAG Cyber, joined by Cofense CTO & Co-Founder, Aaron Higbee, and Security Solutions Advisor, Tonia Dudley, discuss the results of a recent global survey regarding the efficacy of SEGs and how a layered phishing defense approach can benefit your business.

To defend against phishing, your organization needs to understand the key trends and top threats. Cofense’s Intelligence Team spends every day analyzing phishing threats including credential theft, ransomware campaigns, and more. Learn about the top threats that define today’s phishing landscape and how to defend your organization against them.

- See what tactics are successfully evading secure email gateways and reaching enterprise end users.
- Learn what is trending when it comes to malware delivered via phishing, including ransomware.
- Receive tips for ensuring your phishing defense strategy is proactive and well-coordinated.

Leveraging Human Sensors to Detect and Remediate Phishing Attacks in Minutes

As businesses adjusts to having their employees work from home, they are also working hard to support it.

Secure email gateways (SEGs) are meant to protect your organization and your employees from the dangers of phishing attacks. Instead, they provide a false sense of security, as phish continue to swim past these gates and land in your end user’s inbox every day.

In this webinar, Cofense co-founder and CTO, Aaron Higbee, and Security Solution Advisor, Tonia Dudley, discuss the technology gaps that keep SEGs from being 100% “secure”, the methods threat actors use to evade them, and how organizations can leverage technology and human intelligence to succeed where SEGs fail.

Listen in to hear:
• What SEGs are, what they aren’t, and why they fail to keep threats out of your inbox.
• Insights on the phishing campaigns that consistently get past SEGs and reach end users.
• Details on specific credential phish and malware threats we’re seeing and the impact a breach could have on your business
• How Cofense is helping organizations stop email threats that are getting past email gateways – and what you can do to keep your business truly secure.

貴社の従業員をこれまで以上にフィッシング防御の最前線へ

It has become cliché to say that the user is the weakest link in cybersecurity. However, it is also true that the user is often the last line of defense — phishing and other potential security attacks often depend on a person clicking on a link or malware-laden file to launch an attack. While a company might have a top notch cybersecurity operations team, without having an equally trained user base the company is essentially defending itself with one hand tied behind its virtual back.

This SC Magazine 20/20 editorial webcast looks at how CISOs can augment their professional cybersecurity team and security operations center with a highly aware user base to identify and defeat potential breaches.

While the fourth quarter of 2019 saw a decrease in total malware volume, Emotet (also known as Geodo) took the spotlight with email reply chains, macro-laden attachments, and convincing phishing templates. Of course, Emotet is just one of many threats currently facing organizations. Defenders need to understand both the current phishing landscape and how it may change in the future to best safeguard themselves from compromises and breaches.

Join Cofense Intelligence for expert analysis of the latest threats and a look at the tactics, techniques, and procedures attackers may use in the coming year.
