So what more can you do to minimise the risk of being the subject of a man in the middle attack?

Here are a few things to get started:

• Have a really good email spam filter – the free one with your email account doesnt count!
• Double check the email address – and especially the domain part for tiny inconsistencies
• If you do land up on a page where its asking you to sign into your email  or other cloud account, STOP – there is still time to turn back. Look at the address in the address bar – check it carefully
• And when it doubt, check with your IT team – its what we are here for! taking the time to check will save tens of thousands of pounds
