According to the report1, the most widespread type of phishing scam in 2023 was bulk phishing, which affected around 86% of companies worldwide. In the first quarter alone of 2024, there were nearly one million unique phishing sites worldwide. Phishing attacks exploit human error to gain a foothold in corporate or governmental networks as part of a larger attack, such as an advanced persistent threat (APT) event. They bypass security perimeters, distribute malware inside a closed environment, or gain privileged access to secured data.
Preventing phishing scams primarily involves awareness. Proper employee training must be done to recognize phishing attempts. Businesses should also implement multi-factor authentication (MFA) to reduce risk.
