Why is my CEO Texting me? What to do About Executive Impersonation Attacks
Update: 2024-10-16
Description
We’ve all received that urgent text message from our “CEO” asking us to take care of an urgent task. This form of social engineering has become a preferred tactic by threat actors who want to create a high-pressure situation in order to convince employees to send money or share sensitive data.
This week’s episode will cover the why and how behind these attacks. We will also cover the critical role they play in the modern kill chain and how to protect against them.
To see how Lookout protects against advanced smishing and executive impersonation attacks, read our release blog or watch the short overview video below.
