Account Compromise / Cloud
As more business assets move to the cloud, attackers have followed close behind.
Cloud account compromise will give the attacker wide-ranging access to data, contacts, calendar entries, email and other system tools – and it’s no longer a rarity. (https://www.proofpoint.com/us/resources/threat-reports/human-factor)
The 2021 Human Factor Report (https://www.proofpoint.com/us/resources/threat-reports/human-factor)” from Proofpoint notes that credential theft accounts for about two-thirds of attacks.
If the attacker has access to your account, at the very least they have a starting point on their way to their objective.
Adopting your identity presents them with a world of opportunity.
Host Charles Commins is joined by Proofpoint’s Competitive Specialist, Sammi Davies to explore what we can do to combat this compromise in cloud based software.

Business Email Compromise (BEC)/Supply Chain Attacks
BEC attacks are when cyber criminals spoof or even compromise vendors or service providers in order to attack their customers and partners.
Losses from Business Email Compromise are growing.
Currently the losses are 66 times worse than what is lost to Ransomware with 58% of BEC incidents resulting in a loss and the average amount lost to them being $120,000.
Host Charles Commins is joined by Neil Hammet, Director of Technical Marketing at the Office of Cybersecurity Strategy to explore the ways organisations can protect themselves from these attacks.

Ransomware
Ransomware is the celebrity of the hacking world.
It’s the type of attack that we hear about the most because of the way it works.
A bad actor finds a way into your environment and ends up holding your systems and data to ransom.
Host Charles Commins is joined by the Director of Technical Sales for Proofpoint, Ed Rowley to discuss the threat ransomware poses and how organisations can protect themselves in 2022.

Reimagining Email Security (people-centric protection for the #1 threat vector)
According to the 2021 Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report, 85% of breaches involve human error.
The main threat vector attackers are using is email.
This isn’t new but attacks have become more sophisticated as security has improved.
Having good email security is no longer good enough and in this podcast we’ll explore the ways bad actors are using email to target people and get them to do their nefarious work for them.
Host Charles Commins is joined by one of Proofpoint’s Cybersecurity Strategist, Matt Cooke.
