END OF YEAR EMAIL SECURITY REPORT

Volume, Impact, Variety, and
Sophistication of Phishing Attacks on the Rise

With uncertainty rampant, 2021 saw a rise in the volume, variety, impact, and sophistication of phishing attacks. As the pandemic rumbled on in the United States and elsewhere, and displaced employees were still trying to get a grip on their new lives, more opportunities arose for phishers to exploit the spaces between the known and the unknown. Meanwhile, phishers constantly improved their techniques, developed and modularized their tools, and expanded their network of specialists, while sheer capacity
allowed for more attacks. Phishing became professionalized. It became an industry. As always, phishers surfed the news cycle.

This kept the black hats one step in front of the white hats much of time.
