Email Spoofing: A CISO’s Guide to Combating Impersonation Attacks with Robust Email Authentication

by

Email spoofing is one of the most prevalent cyber threats targeting organisations today. In this type of attack, malicious actors forge the sender’s email address to deceive recipients into believing the email originated from a legitimate source, usually a trusted contact or organisation. This form of deception can result in devastating outcomes, from unauthorised access to sensitive information to financial losses, as recipients are manipulated into divulging credentials, transferring funds, or performing other damaging actions.

Decoding Click Injection Fraud: The Impact on Business and How to Safeguard Against It

by

Click injection fraud is a sophisticated form of mobile ad fraud where attackers manipulate user devices to generate fake ad clicks. By intercepting app installations or user interactions, fraudsters create a deceptive stream of ad engagement that appears legitimate. Fraudsters exploit a mobile device’s intent system (the mechanism by which apps communicate) to trigger clicks that are then credited to the attacker’s ad campaign, even if a legitimate user performed the action.

Remote Code Execution (RCE) Vulnerabilities: A Critical Threat to Modern Enterprises

by

Remote Code Execution (RCE) refers to the ability of an attacker to execute malicious code on a target system from a remote location. This can occur through exploiting vulnerabilities in software applications, web servers, or network protocols. RCE vulnerabilities are particularly dangerous because they can allow attackers to bypass traditional security measures, granting them full control over compromised systems. Once an RCE exploit is successful, attackers can run commands, install malware, steal sensitive data, and even alter business-critical applications.

Measuring the Return on Investment (ROI) of Information Security: A Strategic Guide for C-Suite Executives

by

ROI in information security is often seen as “the cost of what didn’t happen” — breaches that didn’t occur, penalties that were avoided, and reputational damage that never materialised. However, this doesn’t mean that the value of cybersecurity investments cannot be measured. By analysing key factors such as risk reduction, cost savings, and business continuity, companies can effectively quantify the ROI of their ISAs and broader security initiatives.

Whaling Attacks: A C-Suite’s Nightmare

Attackers can trick employees into transferring funds, disclosing sensitive information, or compromising critical systems by impersonating top executives.
