ConversingLabs: The Silent Epidemic of Business Email Compromise (BEC) Attacks

CONVERSATIONS WITH THE BEST MINDS IN THREAT INTELLIGENCE AND MALWARE REVERSE ENGINEERING

ConversingLabs On-demand


Online fraud is among the most pernicious and devastating forms of cybercrime- measured by the financial and psychological toll it takes on victims. Phony tech support, online romance and business email compromise scams drain billions from our economy annually and take a huge toll on families, businesses and communities. And yet, it is often overlooked by cybersecurity experts and the larger information security industry. Scams, which frequently hinge on human frailty rather than the manipulation of software, are deemed unworthy of the attention of cybersecurity experts. Victim blaming is rife. But that dismissive attitude misses the point of these attacks and their impact. In this episode of ConversingLabs, we’re going to go deep on scams with Ronnie Tokazowski. Ronnie is a Principal Threat Advisor at the firm Cofense and widely recognized as “That BEC guy” - an expert in Business Email Compromise scams.  Ronnie also hosts a YouTube channel, RonnieRants, where he explores some of the issues related to cybercrime, online scams and more.
