We\u2019ll then explore some fresh examples in modern cybercrime, before highlighting the most effective strategies for keeping brands safe online.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-is-phishing-nbsp\">What is Phishing?&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Phishing involves malicious attempts to trick people online, normally by posing as a trustworthy contact across digital communication. While deceptive emails are a phishing attacker\u2019s bread and butter, modern cybercriminals launch multimedia attacks over social media channels, phone calls, video conferencing, and more. Phishing presents an especially cruel threat as attackers exploit human psychology. Leveraging trust, good faith, and influence, cybercriminals engineer scenarios that prompt targets into giving away valuable login details, private information, and cash.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-ai-powered-phishing-deepfakes-and-beyond-nbsp\">AI-Powered Phishing: Deepfakes and Beyond&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Recent advancements in AI technology are already ushering in a new wave of phishing threats. Generative software turns suspicious typos into fluent English, while also helping attackers multiply their campaigns with the click of a button. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/feed\/update\/urn:li:activity:7158075912771526656\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">A UK government report<\/a> into \u201cThe near-term impact of AI on the cyber threat\u201d recently found that AI tools also decrease the time it takes for hackers to identify and exploit security weaknesses. With AI coding, copywriting, and design, criminals also increase the frequency and sophistication of their attacks, potentially evading security filters.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Crucially, AI\u2019s impact on phishing attacks extends beyond textual communication, and into the audiovisual world of deepfakes. Cybercriminals increasingly deploy deepfake videos and voicecloned audio messages to trick targets both inside and outside of a business. For example, a successful attack recently defrauded a finance company of $<a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?sa=t&amp;rct=j&amp;q=&amp;esrc=s&amp;source=web&amp;cd=&amp;cad=rja&amp;uact=8&amp;ved=2ahUKEwiort6SzKWEAxU8QEEAHZN-AcIQFnoECA0QAw&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cnn.com%2F2024%2F02%2F04%2Fasia%2Fdeepfake-cfo-scam-hong-kong-intl-hnk%2Findex.html%23%3A~%3Atext%3DA%2520finance%2520worker%2520at%2520a%2Caccording%2520to%2520Hong%2520Kong%2520police.&amp;usg=AOvVaw11Tx72TfVyU3joCeqfGMSt&amp;opi=89978449\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">25 million by impersonating their CFO<\/a>. Other campaigns impersonate customer service workers to trick clients into revealing their card details or other private information for later sale online.

Domains let their owners host webpages and register email addresses. These assets help cybercriminals sharpen the hooks of their attacks. Typically, phishing attacks revolve around domain names that impersonate legitimate organizations, with strings that pass as the real thing at first glance. These lookalike domains trick their targets with convincing emails in their inbox, or cloned landing pages where they enter their login details unawares.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to spoofed domains, phishing attackers have plenty of tricks up their sleeves. From simple homoglyphs like replacing an \u201co\u201d with a \u201c0\u201d in \u201cd0main.com\u201d, modern cybercriminals even register domains that sound like a legitimate business name rather than look like one, so they can trick a smart speaker into visiting their page when a user searches via voice control. Discover the top ten domain phishing strategies, as outlined by EBRAND\u2019s Chief Technical Officer, <a href=\"https:\/\/ebrand.com\/blog\/top-ten-impersonation-techniques-used-in-phishing-domains\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">here<\/a>.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-different-types-of-phishing-attacks-nbsp\">Different Types of Phishing Attacks&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As we\u2019ve established, phishing uses social engineering to trick its targets, and like any social interaction, each phishing attack looks and feels unique. However, learning the main types of phishing attacks equips you to recognize the patterns and detect the warning signs. Better yet, it also helps you put the tools in place to protect your brand.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"634\" src=\"https:\/\/ebrand.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Phishing-2-1-1024x634.webp\" alt=\"This image of a diver with a fishing spear highlights this post's topic: phishing.\" class=\"wp-image-37613\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ebrand.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Phishing-2-1-1024x634.webp 1024w, https:\/\/ebrand.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Phishing-2-1-300x186.webp 300w, https:\/\/ebrand.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Phishing-2-1-768x476.webp 768w, https:\/\/ebrand.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Phishing-2-1.webp 1508w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Standard phishing attacks include vishing (voice phishing), smishing (SMS or text message phishing), and whaling, or CEO phishing. Whaling attacks refer to the cybercriminal targeting of executives and VIPs, aka \u201cthe big fish\u201d. Attackers target high-profile victims as they often have the most to lose. Moreover, their influence also helps coerce colleagues or followers, particularly when newer team members lack experience with cyberthreats.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>BEC (Business email compromise) represents another important umbrella term in phishing. BEC refers to attackers impersonating company emails via lookalike phishing addresses. Cybercriminals then trick team members into downloading malware, transferring funds, or even buying gift cards.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These attacks target businesses internally, but phishing attacks also impersonate the business itself, to target its clients. Attacks like customer rewards scams leverage a consumer\u2019s desire for prizes, enticing victims with fake rewards or lottery winnings. Cybercriminals also impersonate company websites and apps, tricking clients into entering private details or downloading malware. In fact, fake apps pose a growing threat, as scammers on product launches or new platforms with app store scams. These attacks strike every industry, from ecommerce <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/tech\/fake-palworld-mobile-apps-could-171634441.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">to gaming<\/a>. Ultimately, fake websites and apps don&#8217;t target a business directly, but they still divert revenue streams and pollute brand images. Businesses must take steps to protect their clients.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-businesses-tackle-phishing-attacks-nbsp\">How Businesses Tackle Phishing Attacks&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Each style of phishing attack calls for a different business response. Thankfully, modern brands have plenty of tools at their disposal. Proactive measures like employee education help lower the risk of successful scams, along with infrastructure like email security. However, attacks do slip through the net.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"634\" src=\"https:\/\/ebrand.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Phishing-3-1024x634.webp\" alt=\"This image of a naval defence vessel at sea highlights this post's topic: phishing.\" class=\"wp-image-37587\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ebrand.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Phishing-3-1024x634.webp 1024w, https:\/\/ebrand.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Phishing-3-300x186.webp 300w, https:\/\/ebrand.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Phishing-3-768x476.webp 768w, https:\/\/ebrand.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Phishing-3.webp 1508w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Internal cybersecurity teams take down threats like social media impersonations or infringing domains on a manual basis, working with legal teams to issue cease and desists, or involving the police to tackle more serious cybercrimes. However, employing cutting-edge technical solutions helps businesses work efficiently at scale to protect their brands.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-technical-solutions-for-businesses-nbsp\">Technical Solutions for Businesses&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Complex issues like phishing require comprehensive solutions. Secure businesses tackle phishing with Digital Risk Protection, a well-rounded solution for detecting, tracking, and removing online threats. With a risk protection platform, businesses scan the domain landscape for anything that spoofs or infringes upon their brand.
