Bus/Financial - Business/Commerce (general) / cybersecurity / phishing
English term or phrase: on their single authority alone
The human side of phishing — called social engineering — involves creating urgency and high stakes for the person being targeted. When money or sensitive information is involved:
Be wary of requests that ask you to go outside of normal procedures
Be wary of requests for payments that must be made immediately or that should be kept confidential
Be wary of requests for the contact information of senior XXX employees — particularly if the person making the requests claims to be an XXX employee
No matter how senior a member of the company is, they will never request that you make a payment or money transfer ***on their single authority alone***

Explanation:
Saludos,
He puesto "basado" entre corchetes por considerar el término necesario para completar el sentido de la frase, aunque originalmente no figure. Si no deseas utilizarlo así, puedes variar empleando la frase "en su sola autoridad" o la palabra "por" en lugar de las palabras "basado en".
Mucha suerte!
