The actors behind the Emotet/Geodo botnet are so sweet – they’re inviting lots of people to their Halloween party tonight! Cofense researchers observed their Halloween-themed phishing emails going out today, asking recipients to open a malicious attachment to learn more about their spooky party. When macros are enabled, an Emotet/Geodo executable is downloaded, enslaving the machine as part of their ever-growing botnet. Sorry to disappoint “the Mike” who is bringing drinks tonight, but savvy folks will sit this one out. Have a safe and happy Halloween from all of us at Cofense!

The email trickery costing businesses billions

Some phishing emails impersonate an employee—even the CEO—to request an urgent wire transfer and get away with robbery. It’s called Business Email Compromise (BEC) and Cofense educates users to identify and report it. See what else the BBC says: http://phish.me/9osa30pDLRZ

Old-Line Industries Struggle to Prioritize Cybersecurity

According to the WSJ phishing is still a huge threat, but only 30% of employers teach users how to spot it. Cofense educates users to recognize phishing emails and report them with one click. See why the experts say that phishing defense is everyone’s job: http://phish.me/3mq230pDyWb

The problems are acute in industries that haven’t traditionally had to prioritize digital safety, including critical infrastructure sectors such as maritime shipping and transportation.
