How malicious email campaigns continue to slip through the cracks
2024-04-08 04:00

In this Help Net Security video, Josh Bartolomie, VP of Global Threat Services at Cofense, discusses how email will remain a target as long as it remains the predominant form of communication within a business.

Cofense researchers have found that malicious email threats bypassing secure email gateways increased over 100% in the past year.

Threat actors are enhancing their sophistication, successfully circumventing conventional email security measures.

They are adopting novel attack vectors, including QR code phishing, SMS-based phishing, and voicemail phishing.

These methods are increasingly used to exploit victims and extract sensitive information, leading to devastating consequences.
