              Cyber Spotlight: How Business Email Compromise Leads to Financial Loss and How to Stop It 

               

              Local governments conduct a tremendous amount of business through email. Invoices are received, vendors are contacted, payment information is exchanged and approvals are communicated every day. 

               

              That convenience also creates an opportunity for cybercriminals. Read more about business email compromise, how these attacks happen and what you can do to prevent them.
