With a lot of companies having to shift to remote work due to COVID-19, there's been a steady rise in phishing attacks, and cyber criminals have taken advantage of our increased screen times. 74% of US organizations were victims of successful phishing attacks in 2020, and 2021 is looking to compete with those numbers. How do you protect yourself? How do you empower yourself against phishing attacks? My name is Stephanie Ihezukwu, your friendly neighborhood cybersecurity professional.

So, join me for my course on LinkedIn Learning, where we'll cover phishing in its many forms from voice phishing to social media phishing. Then we'll arm you with some tools to help you take your power back when it comes to phishing. With this course, you'll learn how to properly defend yourself and your employer against phishing attacks.
