    Stay Alert. Stay Safe. Stay Neftaly Smart.

    At Neftaly, cybersecurity is everyone’s responsibility. One of the most common and dangerous threats to any organization is phishing — a form of cyberattack where fraudsters trick you into giving away sensitive information like passwords, financial details, or company secrets.


    What is Phishing?

    Phishing is when an attacker poses as a trusted source — like your manager, IT team, or a familiar service provider — and tries to get you to:

    • Click on malicious links
    • Download infected attachments
    • Share confidential information

    These attacks usually come through email, but they can also happen via SMS (smishing), phone calls (vishing), or even social media.


    Common Signs of a Phishing Attack

    ???? Urgency or fear tactics: “Your account will be deactivated!”
    ???? Suspicious email addresses or URLs: Slight misspellings or extra characters
    ???? Unexpected attachments or links: Especially ZIP, EXE, or DOC files
    ???? Requests for sensitive information: No legitimate company will ask you for passwords via email


    Neftaly’s 5-Second Phishing Check

    Before you click, ask yourself:

    1. Do I know the sender?
    2. Was I expecting this message?
    3. Are there spelling or grammar errors?
    4. Does the URL match the real company site?
    5. Is the request unusual or urgent?

    If in doubt, don’t click. Report it.


    What To Do If You Suspect a Phishing Email

    ✔️ Do not click any links or download attachments
    ✔️ Do not reply to the email
    ✔️ Report it immediately to Neftaly IT Security
    ✔️ Delete the email once reported
