What's driving the attention

Phishing attacks have become increasingly sophisticated and harder to detect recently.

Phishing attacks are undergoing a dramatic evolution that makes them more difficult to spot. Reports indicate a surge in phishing exploiting routine workflows in platforms like Microsoft 365, enabling hackers to scale operations such as CodeStorm. While overall phishing incidents may be declining, attacks targeting government institutions have risen by 50%. Legal actions are also underway, with companies like Google suing Chinese phishing networks over counterfeit texts.
