ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Join the Jisc cyber threat intelligence team as they unpack the rise of ClickFix and its new variant, FileFix.
Quick Takes is our new short-form Tech Takes series, created to provide you with critical threat intelligence in minutes. In this first episode, we explore ClickFix, a deceptive social engineering technique that tricks users into clicking on malicious links or downloading harmful files.
ClickFix has rapidly become one of the major cyber threats facing organisations worldwide and a new variant, FileFix, is gaining momentum. In this episode of Quick Takes, George Bloor from Jisc's cyber threat intelligence team is joined by colleagues Clive Bream and James Ellor to unpack how these techniques work, why they're effective, and what organisations can do to defend themselves.
