Join Petri Kuivala, CISO Advisor, and David Badanes, Human Risk Management Advisor, for a data-driven look back at how phishing and human risk evolved in 2025; and an expert's view into how to stay secure in 2026.
This year, social engineering got smarter. AI certainly propelled a change in the threat landscape, but the deepfakes on everyone's minds aren't necessarily what we should be most worried about.
Attackers thrived in plain sight, mimicking the trusted tools, brands, and workflows that people rely on every day. From Gmail to Salesforce, PDF to SVG, the most successful attacks in 2025 looked ordinary — and that’s exactly why they worked. It's just done differently and smarter today than it was in 2024.\Our upcoming flagship
Our upcoming flagship Cyber Threat Intelligence Report--which will be published on December, 3--reveals how the threat landscape quietly transformed, based on millions of real-world reports from employees who caught attacks that slipped past filters.
These are the threats that you actually need to know about because these are the attacks that outmaneuvered the filters. The question now is, do you have the information and tools you need to prevent these threats from outsmarting your people and tricking them into a bad click.
🔍 See the year’s most successful phishing lures — HR updates, supplier messages, and document shares that blurred the line between real and fake.
📈 Learn which file types and services attackers abused most, including a 50x surge in weaponized SVGs and the growing misuse of legitimate platforms like Salesforce.
🤖 Understand how AI changed phishing content quality, raising the baseline of believability.
🧠 Get the defender’s playbook for 2026, from token-centric defenses to behavior-first awareness programs that teach users to pause, verify, act.
You’ll leave with a holistic view of the phishing and human risk trends that shaped 2025 — and clear, actionable guidance for the year ahead:
