*NEW* Mini Box - Hijacked Messaging Apps
Welcome to your Mini Box: Hijacked Messaging Apps. A new joint warning from the FBI and CISA confirms that hackers are actively targeting everyday messaging apps, not by cracking them, but by socially engineering users into giving up account codes. This is a timely reminder that even the most secure apps are only as strong as the person behind the screen.
In this topical mini box, you’ll find:
- A one-pager that briefly explains the situation and what your users can do to help keep their accounts secure. We have provided a subject line for email distribution, but feel free to share via intranet, blog, or whatever channel works best for your organization.
- A chat scenario that puts employees in the moment of receiving a suspicious verification code request, helping them practice the right instinct before it happens for real. Depending on your messaging client, you may need to save the provided GIFs to your computer and attach them to your
chat messages.
You are absolutely free to edit and customize the content we send. Make this Mini Box your own! Please don’t hesitate to let us know if there’s something you would like to see in the future.
