Email spoofing is a particularly insidious form of cyberattack: the sender of an email is falsified in order to gain trust and deceive recipients. The consequences range from data theft and malware to financial damage. In this article, you will learn how spoofing works, why it is so dangerous – and how you can effectively protect yourself against it.
NoSpamProxy’s YouTube channel offers customers a wide range of informative and helpful videos that explain numerous aspects of use in detail and in various video formats. With NoSpamProxy Shorties, a new format has now been added.
Short URL services such as bit.ly are consistently used by criminals to get phishing links past email security solutions and onto their victims’ computers. In this article, we show you how short URLs are used as part of spam campaigns and why 32Guards and its dedicated web crawler offer ideal protection against attacks.
Every quarter, our 32Guards research team provides new insights into the current threat situation in the field of email security. The findings, assessments and concrete recommendations are of high value for all email administrators and other persons responsible for IT security – regardless of whether NoSpamProxy is used as a product or not.
At the turn of the year 2019/2020, the time had come: 32Guards began to send assessments of emails to the participants of the 32Guards beta. Over the course of 2020, the repertoire of detections grew significantly. In this article, we will look back at a number of developments and show how 32Guards became increasingly active, especially in the second half of 2020.
In his analyses, 32Guards has repeatedly noticed short URL services in a particularly negative light in recent months. These URL shorteners generate an alternative, short URL that can be used on Twitter, for example. In this way, the number of characters used in a post can be reduced. The fact that the use of these services can cause problems is, of course, already due to the fact that the actual target of the URL is not recognizable – virtually an invitation to phishers and other cybercriminals.
The coronavirus is still an integral part of our everyday life. Contrary to the hopes of many people the threat situation will be existent after 2020. Financial hardship as well as restrictions on our everyday life, from the obligation to wear masks to the ban on accomodation to the death of cultural life will also shape the year 2021.
The current threat situation is shaped by the trojan Emotet. A striking feature of cyber attacks is that the attack patterns vary rapidly. This makes it difficult to specifically detect Emotet threats at all levels.
