How to Identify and Respond to Phishing Attempts

Steps to Identify and Respond to Phishing Attempts

1. Verify the Sender

Always check if the message is from a legitimate source. Look for inconsistencies in the email address or domain.

Avoid clicking on any links or downloading attachments until you have verified their authenticity.

3. Report It

Use Slack's reporting tools or follow your internal security protocol to report suspicious messages.

4. Security Check

Regularly update your passwords and enable two-factor authentication to enhance security.

5. Educate Your Team

Ensure that your team is aware of the common signs of phishing and knows how to handle suspicious messages.

For further doubts, consult your IT or security team for assistance.
