Defeat phishing-attacks.

— Grandmother, you look so nice!
— That’s to hack you better, my dear!

Dear colleagues,

You receive an e-mail from Google. Your professional account has been de-activated due to a technical problem. In the message you are invited to reactivate the account by introducing your ID and password. If you don’t react, all your messages will be deleted…

Do you trust this…?

Attention: phishing!

A person with bad intentions wants to obtain information via your professional inbox, your confidential files, your online accounts,… Often it does not stop there and the hacker also steals information from your social network profile and buys stuff on your favourite sites.

Alarming? Do hackers miss out or are you being caught? Do the online phishing test (only available in French and Dutch).

I do the test

Phishing: don’t be fooled!

Unmask phishing e-mails

  • There is no reason why you should receive this message…
  • The subject of the e-mail is vague; you don’t get the context.
  • The mail got in your spam.
  • The tone is alarming, urgent, threatening, intriguing.

Take the right reflexes with phishing

  • Don’t answer the e-mail!
  • Check if the address of the sender is correct.
  • Check the reliability of the links.
  • Don’t trust annexes, files and images
  • Don’t execute transactions on an unknown platform.

Respond quickly when you are attacked

  • Contact the person or organisation via another channel.
  • Warn the responsible in your enterprise.
  • Change your professional and private passwords.
  • Save your data on a safe place and make a back-up.
  • Run an anti-virus control on your computer.

Good to know

You are not sure? Two know more than one. In case of doubt, discuss it with your colleagues and immediately warn the responsible in your organisation.
