A complete approach to defending yourself and your organization against phishing

Social engineering and phishing are involved in up to 90% of all successful hacker and malware attacks, making them by far the most common strategies. They are also the most dangerous, because they take advantage of the human element, manipulating individuals into willingly providing sensitive data like passwords. Fighting Phishing is about how you can better protect against these ever-evolving threats.

When it comes to stopping phishing, education is key, and inside you'll find detailed descriptions of how these attacks take place, along with valuable information on how to recognize them and take appropriate action before your systems are breached. However, for a comprehensive, defense-in- depth strategy, you will need to implement policies and technical defenses as well. This book is all about combining these elements to create a rock-solid anti-phishing posture.

Written by senior cybersecurity architect and defense evangelist Roger Grimes, this book draws on decades of expertise, as well as a thorough understanding of the newest scams--and the tools needed to stop them. As a leading media commentator, Grimes is well respected for his ability to clearly explain cybersecurity concepts and help organizations implement technical defenses. Inside, he offers wisdom that no one with an interest in cybersecurity can afford to ignore.
