BEC (Business Email Compromise)

What is BEC (Business Email Compromise)?

Business Email Compromise (BEC) is a form of targeted email fraud where attackers impersonate a trusted executive, customer, or partner to trick employees into transferring money or revealing sensitive information. BEC relies on social engineering rather than technical exploits and is often difficult to detect.

Think of BEC as digital impersonation — a fraudster pretends to be your CEO, sends an urgent request, and you comply, unaware it’s a scam.

Example: A finance employee receives an email that appears to be from the CEO, asking them to urgently transfer funds to a foreign account — but the email is fake.
