Email is the only free, universal, independent and official communication tool.
However, it is increasingly threatened by security attacks.
In order to protect e-mail, Vade Secure provides you with the free service: isitphishing.org
What is phishing?
As a reminder, phishing is a term used to describe an email containing a link to a fraudulent site, with the aim of convincing the user to communicate sensitive data, such as bank card numbers, access credentials, private data etc.
Threats are becoming increasingly difficult to deal with, especially as: – the lifespan of a phishing campaign is very short: one hour or less – the campaign can be sent to thousands of emails only – the content of the email is not related to phishing By the way, can you recognize phishing emails?
To combat phishing effectively, the exchange of information in real time is very important for everyone involved.
That’s why Vade Secure has created this free service: isitphishing.org
