Phishing and Account Compromise – Fighting the Social Engineering Threat to Microsoft 365

Phishing is one of the most dangerous types of cyberattacks accounting for more than 80% of reported security incidents. However, did you know that 95% of cybersecurity breaches are successful due to human error?

While Microsoft data centres are protected by state-of-the-art security infrastructure, which makes them virtually impossible to breach directly using technology-focused attacks, even such a robust IT infrastructure can’t protect your Microsoft 365 data from human error.

Human error is an unpatchable weakness in any data protection plan and threat actors are exploiting this by leveraging increasingly sophisticated social engineering tactics and tools with great success.

Join Spanning’s Directors of Product Marketing as they discuss the business and technical trends driving the growth of social engineering attacks and how with the right tools and strategies, you can keep these threats where they belong — away.

The webinar will cover:

• How COVID-19 and the rapid increase in remote work accelerated the growth of social engineering attacks.
• Why Microsoft 365 is particularly vulnerable to social engineering threats.
• Why you, not Microsoft, are responsible for managing social engineering attacks.
• Actionable strategies and tactics to protect your Microsoft 365 from social engineering attacks.
