Eliminate Payment Fraud caused by Vendor Email Compromise (VEC)
THE PROBLEM
When Trusted Vendors Become the Threat
Vendor Email Compromise (VEC) attacks are on the rise, using hijacked vendor accounts to send fraudulent invoices and payment requests.
THE CHALLENGE
Attackers hijack vendor email accounts to send fraudulent payment requests, bypassing traditional email security and behavioral AI models that fail to detect compromised vendors. These attacks blend seamlessly into legitimate business communications, making them nearly undetectable.
After weeks or even months of research, attackers analyze vendor-client relationships, billing cycles, and financial processes to craft highly targeted, convincing requests. Their deep understanding of business operations allows them to manipulate employees into processing fraudulent payments.
VEC attacks avoid malware and malicious links, relying instead on well-crafted text-based requests that evade detection. With no obvious indicators of compromise, these scams slip past conventional security tools, leaving businesses vulnerable to financial losses.
THE SOLUTION
Actively safeguard key accounts such as executives, finance, and vendor-facing roles, where fraud impacts are most severe.
Analyzes hundreds of data points in emails and business systems, including vendor identifying information, profile changes, communications, and invoice data.
Establishes a baseline “digital fingerprint” for each vendor based on historical data and communication patterns and flag deviations.
