This Phishing Policy has been developed to address the growing sophistication and frequency of phishing attacks targeting organizations in Malta and worldwide. The policy is designed to comply with Malta's cybersecurity regulations, EU directives including GDPR, and industry best practices. It provides a framework for protecting the organization's information systems, data, and users from phishing threats through prevention, detection, and response measures. The document should be implemented by organizations operating in Malta to establish clear guidelines for employees, define security measures, and outline response procedures in case of phishing incidents. This Phishing Policy is particularly crucial given the increasing reliance on digital communications and the rising costs associated with successful phishing attacks.
