Listen to CUInfoSecurity’s latest podcast as a leading phishing researcher explains some of his newest findings on phishing. Dr. Markus Jakobsson is a professor at Indiana University, and a research fellow with the Anti Phishing Working Group (AWPG). Dr. Jakobsson is also Associate Director of the Center of Applied Cybersecurity Research, and a founder of RavenWhite Inc, and he heads the efforts at www.stop-phishing.com.
Author and inventor of more than fifty patents, Jakobsson’s research delves into not the technical aspects of phishing and other types of cyber attacks, but also focuses on the human aspect. His latest paper, “The Human Factor in Phishing†is discussed in this two-part podcast.
During the interview Dr. Jakobsson describes the research he is doing on fraud, social engineering and phishing, and the prevention of these attacks. His interview is not to be missed, as he explains some of the new ways attackers are targeting the customers of banks and credit unions.
