In this Help Net Security video, Alex Paquette, COO at Ironscales, discusses the impact in terms of the time and energy required to defend against the never-ending and ever-evolving onslaught of phishing attacks.
A recent study conducted by Osterman Research found that IT and security teams spend one-third of their time handling phishing threats every week.
70% of organizations spend 16-60 minutes dealing with a single phishing email message.
Almost half of the respondents state that phishing is spreading to tools beyond email, including messaging apps, cloud-based file sharing platforms and text messaging services.
