A new report from Cofense warns of sophisticated phishing attacks that exploit trusted email security companies like Proofpoint, Mimecast, and Virtru.
The attacks use fake email attachments, phishing links, and credential-harvesting tactics to compromise sensitive data.
Threat actors mimic well-known brands to gain recipients' trust and trick them into divulging credentials, granting unauthorized access to sensitive accounts.
The report emphasizes the importance of heightened vigilance, proactive security measures, and employee training to mitigate the risks associated with phishing attacks.
