Business email compromise has been a long-time concern; however, incidents and risks have increased since the COVID-19 pandemic, especially as more people are working remotely. Bad actors have found new ways to commit fraud and capitalize on vulnerabilities. Our banking/business, IT risk, and legal team of experts hosted a webinar on September 30th and discussed ways to prevent, mitigate, and recover from this fraud. To watch the webinar, click here or use the YouTube player above.
