Text messages feel personal. Immediate. Safe. Attackers know that.Smishing uses trust and urgency to turn one reply into a security incident. Know the warning signs, see real examples and respond fast.
When an incident hits, plans either work or they don’t. Our security experts look at what actually helps teams respond with control and recover faster.
Some of today’s most damaging attacks start with a message that looks internal and trusted.
Our Incident Response Team is actively responding to:
» Direct Send abuse spoofing internal Microsoft 365 users » ACH and banking change phishing designed to reroute payments » Emails that bypass authentication and traditional filters » Attacks that don’t require a compromised account
An HBS Incident Response Retainer gives you: » 2-hour response SLA, 24x7 » Immediate containment without contract delays » Senior incident responders and forensic experts
» Insurance-ready investigation and documentation
» Clear remediation steps to prevent repeat attacks
When a phishing email slips through, you don’t want to negotiate response. You want it already approved.
HBS has been named a Ready Tier Partner in Microsoft’s Copilot Jumpstart Initiative, unlocking earlier access to Microsoft-funded guidance, training and hands-on programs that help organizations move from AI curiosity to real Copilot results faster.
