Annual State of Phishing Report

Executive Summary

2020 year in review In fact, in 2020 Cofense stood alone actively discouraging sending COVID-19 themed phishing simulations at the outbreak of the pandemic. The peanut gallery of information security experts grumbled on Twitter about the need for realism. While they were occupied retweeting, the Cofense customer community produced more REAL coronavirus/COVID-19 phishing email indicators than the entirety of the global cyber vendor landscape combined.

Let that gel for a bit. The inventors of phishing simulations blocked COVID-19 themed PhishMe templates, yet our customers’ employees reported more real COVID-19 phish than anyone else.
