Understand the Phishing Threat Targeting Your Customers

Financial services and e-commerce platforms face an evolving phishing crisis. With 3.4 billion phishing emails sent daily and reverse-proxy techniques now bypassing traditional MFA, credential theft has become alarmingly sophisticated—and accessible to virtually any fraudster.

Recent intelligence reveals financial services accounts for 31% of all phishing attacks, while GenAI has dropped the barrier to entry to near-zero. Modern phishing kits enable anyone to create convincing campaigns with cloned websites, AI-generated emails and reverse-proxy setups that intercept credentials, OTPs and session tokens in real time.
