Business Email Compromise (BEC) Scam

Описание: Business Email Compromise (BEC) is a sophisticated scam targeting companies and individuals using email fraud to steal sensitive information or money. Attackers impersonate a trusted contact, like a company executive or a business partner, to trick the recipient into making unauthorized financial transfers or revealing confidential information. This can lead to substantial financial loss, data breaches, and harm to a company's reputation. BEC scams rely on social engineering and sometimes malware to infiltrate email systems and manipulate victims. The key to preventing BEC attacks lies in awareness, verification of unusual requests, and robust cybersecurity measures.
