5 Ways to Strengthen Your Phishing Defense Program for 2018

A major breach of your enterprise's critical data could potentially threaten the life of your business. In addition to the potential loss of customer data or intellectual property, a breached company  faces public scrutiny, IT security overhauls, potential lawsuits, brand damage, and loss of customers. In this webcast, experts discuss the real losses associated with a breach, both in the data center and in the business –and how an effective data breach response program can help mitigate the damage.
When you attend this webinar, you will:
• learn what factors cause the price of an incident to ratchet up higher and higher
• learn how much cyber insurance can (and cannot) protect you from the costs of a breach
• learn how much a good incident response team can save your organization
understand the long-term impacts a data breach can have on your organization and how to prepare for them

While ransomware might not be dominating the headlines, it is still a persistent threat that continues to evolve. Weaponized emails still make it past the gateway and ransomware infections happen. Today, variants of ransomware offer “customer support” offered by the cybercriminal for communication and negotiation with the victim. Ransom amounts can vary depending on the perceived wealth of the victim. Ransomware operators also offer flexible payment methods using forms of payment other than Bitcoin and even structured payment/decryption plans. As ransomware evolves, so must your response to these threats.

This session will help you understand:

- The impact of what happens if your users are not trained on email scrutiny
- The multiple effects it can have on your enterprise
- Techniques to mitigate incidents and bolster your network’s protection against future attacks

Ransomware is a vicious type of malware. Not only can it potentially destroy your data and perhaps even your hardware, it can wreak havoc on your business operations. Ultimately the question a company has to face, of course, is do you pay the ransom for the chance to recover your system or not. If you don’t pay, you potentially could lose everything. If you do pay, you potentially could still lose everything, as well as possibly break various laws. This 20/20 editorial webcast with ensuing special report takes a deeper dive into your options and why you might well face a no-win scenario. It’s the Kobayashi Maru test – do you follow the rules or make your own?

If you are implementing a security awareness program – how do you talk about it with executives? This session will review the top 5 reports that Boards and top executives need to see as you implement a program. They will demonstrate if your plan is working or if changes are needed. These stats about your program will help you plan and secure the gaps between end users and technology while communicating measurable goals.

What’s keeping you up at night? Ransomware? Phishing? Spyware? Malware? Data Breaches? A malicious email typically opens the door to those threats. Organizations spend great energy (and budget) preventing users from falling prey, but threat actors continue to find ways to get past automated controls, staying one step ahead of artificial intelligence tools. Cofense believes solving the phishing problem is more than just awareness: it’s about empowering humans to become instinctual nodes on the cyber defense network and feeding their real-time intelligence to security teams for immediate action.

Hear from Aaron Higbee and Lenny Liebmann, contributing editor with InformationWeek as they discuss the latest phishing trends, attacks and defense strategies across global enterprises and some predictions of what to expect in 2018.

We’re all bombarded by emails. Unfortunately, some are weaponized. They deliver ransomware, other malware, and social engineering scams. What happens when a phishing email gets past your security technologies and lands in employees’ inboxes?

This webinar will show you how to teach them to spot and report phishing, feed your incident response teams the intel to mitigate attacks and increase overall enterprise resiliency. Take the first step in creating a collective and collaborative defense. One that enables your team to stop email-based threats.

Join (ISC)² EMEA and PhishMe for a look back at 2017’s threats and a look ahead. We’ll provide an overview of what PhishMe's Intelligence team uncovered, discuss trends in phishing-delivered malware, and analyse how various delivery vectors evolved.

Some of the trends we’ll discuss:
•The implications of last year’s major global cyber-events, such as WannaCry and NotPetya
•The emergence of new ransomware families
•The abuse of legitimate functions built into business-critical software platforms to deliver malware
•The favouring of modularity and plug-in accompaniments to lightweight botnet and stealer malwares
•New ways cyber-criminals are obtaining cryptocurrency

Cyber-crime won’t slow down. Take this opportunity to learn from the recent past as you deal with current threats and prepare for whatever’s next.

Ransomware continues to be a headline grabber but where do these attacks rate compared to other cyberattacks? We look at the history of ransomware, it’s not-so-obvious impacts, and how you can prepare for the next attack in today’s 20/20 webinar.

Whether you’re just getting your program off the ground or looking to optimize your current program, this webinar will give you the knowledge you need. It’s based on proven programs involving over 27 million end users across 160 countries. Tune into to find out what others have done to reduce end-user susceptibility by 95% and build resiliency among their workforce.

Some of the topics covered include:
- Best ways to introduce and communicate a program
- Tips for increasing engagement

The bad news: phishing is still the #1 cyber-attack vector. The good news: new PhishMe research shows how you can go on the offensive and strengthen your resiliency to costly phishing attacks.

Join Lex Robinson, Anti-Phishing / Cyber Security Strategist, as he breaks down data from training simulations and real-life attacks to reveal how you can design a great anti-phishing program. Learn how a proactive approach conditions employees to recognize both active threats—the latest attacks that are costing organizations big-time—and “classic” threats bad actors can recycle whenever they please. See how to gain insights from incident response and phishing intelligence to keep you out in front of evolving threats. You’ll learn how to take the offensive to lower susceptibility, fortify resiliency and disrupt attacks faster.

It should come as no surprise to anyone that ransomware has become the hackers’ favored option these days. If you buy in to the scare tactics about ransomware, it’s easy to create, has a high profile in the media and can be lucrative. But like everything else in the data security world, nothing is ever as simple as it seems. This eBook (and corresponding 20/20 webcast) will look at the realities of ransomware, including the real and imagined difficulties of defending against it, the support needed on the attacker’s side to make ransomware effective and tactics victims can take to rid themselves of the malware.

During a survey recently conducted among security professionals, 90% said phishing is the #1 threat. Yet many acknowledged they’re unprepared to deal with phishing attacks.

Attend this webinar to learn why responders are drowning in emails instead of hunting real threats. See why they’re betting on automation whilst we know, tech alone won’t stop threats from getting through and wreaking serious havoc. Learn what rapid changes and investments your peers are planning to turn the tide against phishing and protect their organisations.

You will also find out:
•How bad is the phishing threat?
•How confident are companies in their phishing responses?
•What solutions are companies using—and which ones should they add?
•How can automation and technology help? Why are humans important, too?

If you’re a security professional, you understand the cyber threat to your organization and the need for an effective defense. The one big problem: your top management doesn’t. In this useful and insightful webinar, top experts offer recommendations on how to measure the cyber threat posed to your enterprise, the posture of your online defenses, and the needs and achievements of your IT security department. This webinar will bring you some new methods for describing and measuring your cybersecurity initiatives so that they can be understood by even the most business-oriented executives.

In early 2017, with the help of Gatepoint Research, PhishMe conducted a survey of select IT executives themed “Phishing Response Strategies”. The participants represent a wide variety of industries including business services, high tech, healthcare, financial services, and more. Survey participants were asked important questions about their current phishing response strategies’ strengths and weaknesses, as well as the current state of their phishing response programs.

Join PhishMe and Simply Direct for an in-depth review of responses to this survey and discover answers to current challenges relating to Phishing Incident Response in today’s organizations.

Agenda:
What are the current strategies for detecting and managing phishing attacks?
What technologies are currently deployed or in process?
What capabilities would most enhance the phishing management process?

Ransomware campaigns continue to evolve. Organizations can defend their business with intelligence that uncovers the tactics attackers are leveraging to inflict harm. At the same time, your employees are a valuable resource in defending against ransomware and provide security teams with useful information to take proactive measures. Security leaders and their teams are challenged with doing more with less. Integrated solutions and automation to fight ransomware enables analysts to be more efficient and accurate in the operation.

Join PhishMe and Recorded Future as they uncover the latest ransomware campaigns and how employees and analysts play an important role in defending the enterprise.
 
Agenda:
• What are researchers and other companies seeing as part of the threat landscape?
• What can teams do to protect and respond and what resources do you need to prepare?
• What are the benefits of integrating tools together and how can this help you?

No matter how quickly you’re detecting and responding to breaches, it’s still not fast enough for your customers’ and clients’ peace of mind. Even companies with the best solution in place are only doing half the job. The other half? Training your people.

The average time to find and respond to a breach?
147 days. (That’s not a typo.)

So, how do you get your organization better – and faster? And how do you train and empower your employees to do better than 147 days? In this presentation, we will explore how to harness the common detection techniques used by prairie dogs (yes, prairie dogs) and lessons we can learn from them in the domain of cyber security. HINT? It’s called Collective Security.

Prairie dog calls contain specific information as to what the predator is, how big it is and how fast it is approaching.
