Life is busy and there's just so many things to remember. What tools do you use to help you keep on top of ALL the things?
Microsoft pushed an emergency patch for Office after discovering a zero-day exploit that attackers were already using. The flaw bypassed Office's built-in security protections, allowing malicious code to run when you open a document. But here is the catch: it only worked if they could convince you to open the file first.
In this episode, Charly covers:
✅ How this zero-day exploit bypassed Office security protections
✅ Why the social engineering component was critical to the attack
✅ What to do if you receive unexpected documents, even from people you know
✅ How to apply the fix for Office 2016, 2019, 2021 and Microsoft 365
✅ Why verifying through a separate channel is your best defence
The more sophisticated our systems get, the more sophisticated the attacks become. Stay vigilant.
