KnowBe4 Launches Holiday Cybersecurity Resource Kit to Protect Against Dangerous Holiday Scams
November 22 2021 - 10:15AM
KnowBe4, the provider of the world’s largest security awareness
training and simulated phishing platform, today announced it has
launched a Holiday Cybersecurity Resource Kit with complimentary
resources and courseware aimed to help protect end users against
holiday-themed cyber scams.
Cybercriminals are preying on victims even more this year with
the supply chain affected by COVID-19 and the lack of ability to
find enough workers. The shortage in goods is a prime target for
bad actors to play into people’s heightened sense of emotions and
stress levels even further by unleashing their social engineering
attacks. The FBI has a list of tips to protect against holiday
scams.
“Any email or post that causes an immediate, strong emotional
response or threatens harm if you do not respond or take some sort
of action should be scrutinized very carefully, especially during
the holiday season” said Stu Sjouwerman, CEO, KnowBe4. “Ensure to
double check the protections on invoices and secure payment
services before rendering any sort of payment for good or services.
We hope that this kit full of complimentary resources provides an
added layer of protection for end users throughout the
holidays.”
