The company you work for has recently received several support complaints from customers who have received suspicious emails asking for personal information. These emails have the company's logo and formatting but are coming from an unusual email domain. What kind of threat is most likely occurring?
Brand impersonation involves mimicking the official brand to deceive people into providing sensitive information or performing actions that compromise security. In this scenario, the use of the company's logo and formatting in emails from an unfamiliar domain indicates an attempt to pose as the company, which is characteristic of a brand impersonation attack.
