The Art of the (Im)possible: Overcoming Business Email Compromise

Abnormal's Crane Hassold and Stephen Doughtery of the Secret Service discuss how enterprises can stop BEC. Watch the recorded session from Vision 2023.

Wichtige Erkenntnisse

BEC was not reported in the 2013 FBI Internet Crime Complaint Report but became the top financial cybercrime by 2015.

BEC accounted for $2.4 billion in losses last year, growing despite increased security tools and awareness programs.

Threat actors continuously evolve tactics across email and other vectors to bypass defenses and trick end users.

The 2013 Internet Crime Complaint Report released by the FBI didn’t even mention business email compromise. A year later it was the second most financially-devastating crime and starting in 2015, it took the top spot. Each year since, it has continued to outpace itself—accounting for $2.4 billion in losses last year.

Despite increases in security tools and awareness programs, these impersonation attacks are expected to grow again this year. And likely next year too. So what do we do?

In this webinar from Vision 2023, Stephen Doughtery from the Secret Service and Abnormal Security's Director of Threat Intelligence, Crane Hassold, explore:

  • How threat actors continue to change their tactics to trick end users

  • What new threats are emerging across email and other vectors

  • Why business email compromise is still so successful

  • What organizations need to prevent these attacks from landing in their inboxes
