Managed XDR Exposes Spear-Phishing Campaign Targeting Hospitality Industry Using RedLine Stealer
Security recommendations and Trend Micro solutions
Email-related threats are becoming increasingly sophisticated and harder to spot. Back in the day, bad grammar and an exaggerated sense of urgency were enough tell-tale signs of malicious emails. Nowadays, malicious actors have evolved to mimic the voice and tone of the character they’re trying to pretend to be and at times, are prepared to play the long con.
To successfully combat spam or phishing threats, organizations must give their employees the necessary tools, resources, and training to help them better flag malicious emails that can lead to data breaches and ransomware attacks. Organizations can benefit from Trend Micro’s Phish Insight, which provides effective and automated real-world phishing simulations and customized training campaigns.
Trend Micro’s comprehensive XDR solution applies the most effective expert analytics to the deep data sets collected from Trend Micro solutions across the enterprise, making faster connections to identify and stop attacks. Powerful artificial intelligence (AI) and expert security analytics correlate data from customer environments and Trend Micro’s global threat intelligence to deliver fewer, higher-fidelity alerts, leading to better, early detection. One console with one source of prioritized, optimized alerts supported with guided investigation simplifies the steps to achieving a full understanding of the attack path and impact on the organization.
