Phishing continues to explode in 2020, particularly with the shift to remote learning, working and playing, converging work and personal lives on the same device. Globally, phishers are using fake login scams, scareware tactics, fraudulent ads and rogue software downloads as attack payloads. They are attacking in and outside of email using SMS/iMessage, social networks, new collaboration, videoconferencing and gaming services, significantly affecting the brands and reputations of businesses, consumers and service providers alike.
“Millions of people have experienced examples of brand attacks whether it is the scary email scam, to ‘change your password’ from your bank or the fake ‘pick up your package’ text message from USPS or Amazon,” said Patrick Harr, CEO of SlashNext. “The explosion of these and many more phishing attacks is having a dramatic effect on the brands and reputations of companies and internet services.
