Whaling

Is your organisation prepared for these attacks?🐳

In our industry 'whaling' is a type of phishing attack that targets high-profile individuals such as senior executives or other important personnel within an organisation.

Unlike regular phishing attacks that cast a wide net, whaling attacks are highly targeted and customised, often involving detailed research about the victim to make the deception more convincing.

Whaling attacks aim to trick the targeted individual into disclosing sensitive information or transferring large sums of money.

Given the potential access and authority of the targets, the stakes and potential damage from successful whaling attacks are typically very high.
