Phishing Attacks in 2025: Smarter, Faster, and Harder to Spot

Phishing attacks remain the #1 cause of data security breaches, and they're only getting more sophisticated.

In 2025, attackers are deploying AI-driven spear phishing to create hyper-personalized messages that bypass traditional filters.

Key Warning Signs:

• Slight misspellings in email addresses or domains.
  

• Urgent requests for personal data or credentials.
  

• Links that appear legitimate but redirect to unrecognized (likely malicious) sites.
