  • Phishing-Awareness Specialists: Stewarding Trust in a Digital World
    Phishing-Awareness Specialists: Stewarding Trust in a Digital World Written by Joshua Bucheli, AI Ethics Researcher and Fellow at the ForHumanity Center, in Collaboration with IT Security Manager Kai Dorner and Peter Kosel, Founder of cyberunity Illustration from Insta: the_doodling_crow Over the past couple of years, YouTubers like kitboga and Jim Browning have pioneered an online fascination with exposing call-center scams, a pastime that has become known as ‘scambaiting’. Posing as vulnerable IT users, these cyber-vigilantes lure in bad-actors who masquerade as IT support, turning the tables on their phishing scams, exposing them and garnering millions of views in the process. While comical, what these viral videos highlight is no laughing matter – they show just how easy it is to fall prey to phishing scams, and they demonstrate the crucial need for increased awareness of how to identify trustworthy parties. Trust is the keystone upon which all of our social, and indeed digital, interactions are based. We trust E-banking with our finances, apps with our passwords, systems with our infrastructures, and clouds with our data. ‘Phishing’ attacks are a form of social engineering that preys on this trust, therefore posing one of the greatest threats to data security. Where Does Phishing Stand Today?
