Inside The Episodes

AJ catches Mark trying to ‘phish’ Erica for financial information on the merger. Mark brushes this off as a phishing test for all the company. He asks AJ why he is so loyal to the company but AJ explains it’s about the people. Undeterred, later that night Mark downloads all Erica's confidential files.

This is the episode that deals with ‘phishing’, a subject right at the heart of the security awareness community and is, as Perry explains, behind a shocking 91% of breaches. In relation to some improvized ‘gold’ from the actor who plays AJ, Rob and Jim expand on the importance of clever casting and there is a gentle nod towards the ‘classic’ security training video.
