How to Protect Your Data from Phishing


In today's digital landscape, cyberattacks like phishing and ransomware are commonplace. Phishing is one of the most sophisticated and dangerous cyber threats, aiming to steal personal or financial data. These attacks typically occur via emails or messages on social media that appear to come from seemingly trustworthy sources.

As a leading company in the field of cyber security, SecTepe has extensive experience and expertise in defending against such attacks. We understand the mechanisms and the sophisticated methods used by cybercriminals to gain access to your valuable data. Below, you will find the most important tips for consumers and businesses.


The Importance of Endpoint Detection and Response


With the increasing prevalence of phishing and ransomware, the use of advanced security solutions like Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) is becoming ever more essential. EDR solutions proactively detect and block harmful activities to protect your data from unauthorized access.


Measures to Strengthen IT Security with SecTepe


  1. Check the Sender: Always check the sender's email address and the subject line. Any deviation can be an indicator of a phishing attempt.


  2. Caution with Links and Attachments: Be especially careful with unknown links or attachments and verify the authenticity of the sender.


  3. Do Not Share Data: Do not share sensitive information via email. Reputable organizations will never contact you this way.


  4. Update Security Software: Use up-to-date antivirus software, firewalls, and EDR solutions to protect against malware and ransomware.


  5. Caution in Public Networks: Avoid transactions in unsecured networks and protect your data.


  6. Use Strong Passwords: Use strong, unique passwords and two-factor authentication.


  7. Caution on Social Media: Carefully check messages and friend requests.
