Explore the five ways to mitigate the risks of BEC attacks
Our take
BEC is a criminal phenomenon with potentially severe consequences. More likely than not, these types of attacks will continue to rise, both in frequency and losses to the companies that fall victim.
The majority of BEC criminals live and operate outside of the United States, making it difficult for law enforcement to prosecute them. As a result, prevention and detection are imperative. Now is the time for companies to educate themselves about BEC, train their employees, and create an environment that encourages compliance. Together with hardened networks and optimized controls, these measures provide organizations with the advantage they need to keep BEC at bay.
