    Security Awareness for Finance

    Defend your finance team against invoice fraud, CEO fraud, and financial manipulation attacks.

    Why Finance Teams Are High-Value Targets

    Finance teams manage payments, invoices, and sensitive financial information. This makes them an attractive target for attackers who exploit speed, trust, and pressure. Common attacks revolve around familiar scenarios such as a “new bank account number,” an urgent payment request just before the weekend, or a message that appears to come from the CEO or CFO.

    These attacks are often carefully crafted and difficult to distinguish from legitimate communication. One wrong decision can be enough to cause significant financial loss. This is why general security awareness is not sufficient for finance teams.

    With targeted training, finance professionals learn to recognise suspicious signals more quickly, assess critical decision points correctly, and verify payment requests safely through the proper channels. This helps stop fraud before money actually leaves the organisation.
