The Problem

Small organizations often rely on employee vigilance even though phishing now reaches staff through email, text messages, search results, browsers, and personal devices. Their existing filters, web controls, authentication methods, reporting procedures, and training are frequently incomplete or poorly coordinated. A single rushed click can therefore bypass an otherwise reasonable security program.

Potential Solution

Deliver a fixed-scope phishing exposure assessment followed by hands-on configuration of email attachment scanning, risky-domain blocking, browser policies, external authentication methods, and a clear employee verification process. After implementation, run recurring simulations across approved channels, review failures with the client, and adjust controls and training. The business begins as a managed service using established security products rather than building another security platform.

Why Now?

AI-assisted impersonation, poisoned search results, browser-based deception, and attacks reaching personal devices are expanding phishing beyond the traditional suspicious email. Organizations need coordinated controls that reduce dependence on employees recognizing every attack correctly.

Digital Trust in Practice: Compliance, AI, and Human Factors with Sandeep Pauddar

Data Driven Like, what would that be? I agree with you. So in different sectors, in different verticals, we see different weak areas. And this aligns with many annual reports that you see from, say, Verizon or FBI, they issue annual cybersecurity reports, and you see that people are the weakest point. According to the latest FBI report, more than 2/3 of data breaches occur when somebody falls prey to a phishing email. So people need to be more aware. The security dimension is challenging as well. It's changing quite a bit. The attackers now use AI. So in the past, we could tell a phishing email because of the poor grammar or misspelled names and the words.

AI: Cybsersecurity's friend, or foe?

Security Insights

And let you know, there's a lot of organizations in this world that are not as cyber aware as we would be, for example, and I don't expect them to, you know, think of hospitals, they don't have time to read email, fake emails, or if they watch a video to to question the legitimacy of that video. And there's a misconception now that, you know, users are your frontline, and they have to defend them. That's just wrong, because we can't rely on them to defend our entire organization, you have to put in controls that if they do get phished, if they if somebody does click on an email, if they do put in their credentials, and they will, because it's absolutely normal.

Zero Trust - Designing the trust out of the network | Joshua Sitta

The Digital Trust Podcast

That makes sense. But what that does is we try to tune that to make sure that it's only capturing phishing emails and never blocking good business emails. That means only the scariest, most difficult-to-detect-phishing emails are making it through to our users, the people who weren't hired for their cybersecurity skills. And then we take them to our security awareness training, and we say, hey, man, don't click on the link. And then they walk back to their desk, and they're like, wait, but my job is to click on links. I'm a salesperson. I don't know any of the people. None of these people I've ever talked to. I wasn't expecting any of these people.

I think I saw a statistic here recently, sorry to jump in. No, go ahead. That 91% of corporate breaches have come from some kind of email compromise. Whether they got into their email or they phished someone, 91% of the hacks that have happened have come through some kind of email interaction, which is crazy. So, phishing is super critical.
