SAN JOSE, Calif., April 18, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --  Zscaler, Inc. (NASDAQ: ZS), the leader in cloud security, today released the findings of its 2023 ThreatLabz Phishing Report. The report views 12 months of global phishing data from the world’s largest in-line security cloud to identify the latest trends, emerging tactics, and which industries and regions are most impacted by phishing attacks. The report found that a majority of modern phishing attacks rely on stolen credentials and outlined the growing threat from Adversary-in-the-Middle (AitM) attacks, increased use of the InterPlanetary File System (IPFS), as well as reliance on phishing kits sourced from black markets and AI tools like ChatGPT.

Key Points: 
  • Year-over-year, we continue to see an increase in the number of phishing attacks which are becoming more sophisticated in nature.
  • “AitM attacks supported by growth in Phishing-as-a-Service have allowed attackers to bypass traditional security models, including multi-factor authentication.
  • It is much more difficult to remove a phishing page hosted in IPFS because of its peer-to-peer network aspect.
  • ​​ThreatLabz evaluated data from the Zscaler security cloud, which monitors over 280 billion transactions daily across the globe.
