Protecting a Broader Range of Employees is Essential
Are your personal data removal efforts only focused on protecting your executives? In an era where mass SMS-phishing (smishing) campaigns and other social engineering attacks targeting non-executive staff are prevalent, extending personal data removal beyond just the C-Suite is essential.
Our new whitepaper, “PII Removal for Executives is Not Enough,” dives deep into the critical need for a broader approach to personal data removal across all levels of an organization. Download our whitepaper below – no personal data required.
Key Highlights:
- For breaches where the attack vector is social engineering, non-executive employees are often the primary targets.
- Non-executive employees are targeted by attackers more than executives.
- Personally identifiable information (PII) is exploited in social engineering attacks against a broad range of employee roles and departments.
- Effective PII removal is a critical proactive defense against social engineering and other PII-based threats.
- PII removal efforts must include a wider range of employees to close existing security gaps.
- No company is immune from successful attacks. The companies profiled have large and sophisticated cybersecurity teams, but were still breached.
The whitepaper includes real-world breach cases, threat actor tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) targeting non-executives, and recommendations for prioritizing personal data removal for high-risk roles.
