Expert Insight
Learning from Real Incidents
Willow Breckenridge has investigated over 200 fraud cases across Australia since 2019. She found that most successful scams exploit process gaps rather than technical vulnerabilities.
"The fraudsters I've tracked don't need to hack systems," she explains. "They study how companies communicate internally and exploit those patterns. Training your team to recognise these tactics creates a much stronger defence than any software alone."
Our October 2025 programme incorporates findings from her recent casework, including three major incidents involving Canberra businesses in early 2025.
Building Your Defence Strategy
Effective fraud prevention isn't about reacting to threats after they appear. It's about creating systems where your team naturally spots anomalies and follows verification steps without thinking twice.
Our training programmes start in August 2025 and run through early 2026. We work with groups of 8-15 participants, focusing on practical exercises using sanitised versions of real fraud attempts targeting Australian organisations.
