An essential anti-phishing desk reference for anyone with an
email address
Phishing Dark Waters addresses the growing and continuing
scourge of phishing emails, and provides actionable defensive
techniques and tools to help you steer clear of malicious emails.
Phishing is analyzed from the viewpoint of human decision-making
and the impact of deliberate influence and manipulation on the
recipient. With expert guidance, this book provides insight into
the financial, corporate espionage, nation state, and identity
theft goals of the attackers, and teaches you how to spot a spoofed
e-mail or cloned website. Included are detailed examples of high
profile breaches at Target, RSA, Coca Cola, and the AP, as well as
an examination of sample scams including the Nigerian 419,
financial themes, and post high-profile event attacks. Learn how to
protect yourself and your organization using anti-phishing tools,
and how to create your own phish to use as part of a security
awareness program.
Phishing is a social engineering technique through email that
deceives users into taking an action that is not in their best
interest, but usually with the goal of disclosing information or
installing malware on the victim’s computer. Phishing Dark
Waters explains the phishing process and techniques, and the
defenses available to keep scammers at bay.
* Learn what a phish is, and the deceptive ways they’ve been
used
* Understand decision-making, and the sneaky ways phishers reel
you in
* Recognize different types of phish, and know what to do when
you catch one
* Use phishing as part of your security awareness program for
heightened protection
Attempts to deal with the growing number of phishing incidents
include legislation, user training, public awareness, and technical
security, but phishing still exploits the natural way humans
respond to certain situations. Phishing Dark Waters is an
indispensible guide to recognizing and blocking the phish, keeping
you, your organization, and your finances safe.
