Anti-Phishing Services
Electronic thieves use phishing attacks to deceive people into revealing account information in order to steal. These attacks are complex in nature and attack methods are evolving rapidly. Phishing attacks erode consumer confidence resulting in lost sales, unwanted publicity, increased costs and potential legal action.
When institutions are attacked, they often lack the process, knowledge and resources to respond quickly and effectively. And Phishers usually attack after hours and on weekends — when you are least able to respond. 24 hours a day and 365 days a year, SecureWorks provides the tools and expertise to restore customer confidence and turn the tables on the attackers.
SecureWorks provides the following Anti-Phishing services to help companies both prior to and after a phishing incident occurs.
Phishing Incident Preparation
Phishing Incident Response Plan
Having an incident handling plan in hand during the time immediately following an attack is critical. The incident handling plan provides a detailed response blueprint including procedures, processes, responsibilities, and points of contact. This plan will reflect roles and responsibilities as well as steps for communicating time-sensitive phishing-related information.
