The Critical Role of Spear Phishing Testing for SMEs
Spear phishing is one of the most common forms of cyber threats that small to medium sized enterprises (SMEs) are vulnerable to. It is a targeted attack where cybercriminals craft seemingly legitimate emails, which aim to deceive employees into disclosing sensitive information. Testing your staff with a spear phishing campaign is not just important; it is essential for your business’s cybersecurity strength.

Why EOFY is the Time to Test Your Defences
The end of the financial year (EOFY) is a period marked by hectic schedules and looming deadlines. It’s a time when even the most cautious can let their guard down. Cybercriminals exploit this busy period, knowing that people are more likely to make mistakes. Conducting a spear phishing test leading up to EOFY can prepare your staff to be extra cautious when they’re most likely to encounter these threats. This also means that your staff may end up learning a life lesson in a controlled environment where their mistake doesn’t result in loss of data, finances or clients.
