The report reveals that 19 percent of enterprise iOS devices have been victim to at least one phishing attack during the analyzed time period compared to 10.9 percent of enterprise Android devices. While most phishing attacks remain simple attempts via email the phishing threat is growing as more and more attackers opt for cleverer ways of stealing people’s data.
Phishing attacks will also likely grow in complexity from now on out in my opinion. Access to even the most basic LLM (Large Language Model) AI will allow malicious agents to increase the rate of their attacks a hundred times over. Less tech savvy individuals are also much more likely to fall for phishing attacks if an AI is there to immediately respond to them.
Modern hacking attempts are becoming more and more fascinating. For example the Vision Pro had a unique security flaw that was just like something straight out of science fiction. But don’t let the increased rate of phishing attacks distract you from the fact that the iPhone 16 is one of the best phones you can get today.
