Phishing attacks are becoming harder to spot
Recognise the sender? The email still might not be safe.
Cyber attacks on pharmacies are increasing, and many of these incidents are not the result of sophisticated hacking techniques. They can start with everyday business communications. Compromised accounts and AI are making these attacks harder to recognise. For pharmacy teams, a simple habit can make a difference:
Pause. Check. Verify.
Be cautious with unexpected links, attachments, QR codes and unusual requests, even when they appear to come from someone you know. If something doesn’t seem right, verify it through another channel before taking action.
