"NSA: How to Protect Against Evolving Phishing Attacks"

The National Security Agency (NSA) and its US partners have published a new report describing phishing attack techniques and the defenses that organizations can implement to combat them. The Cybersecurity Information Sheet (CSI) titled "Phishing Guidance: Stopping the Attack Cycle at Phase One" delves into cybersecurity controls to reduce phishing attacks. The CSI goes over how to protect against login credential phishing and malware-based phishing, as well as remediation steps for successful phishing activity. Information Technology (IT) professionals are advised to consider following over a dozen best practices to prevent their organization from being compromised, such as phishing-resistant multi-factor authentication (MFA), phishing filters for links and attachments, protective DNS, application allow-lists, and remote browser isolation. This article continues to discuss the CSI on the latest techniques in phishing attacks and defenses that can be used against them.
