Is Your IT Team Ready?<\/b><\/h1>\n

AI has been helping businesses move faster for a while. Unfortunately, attackers have figured that out too.<\/span><\/p>\n

In the past six months, security teams have reported a massive spike in phishing emails crafted using large language models. These messages aren\u2019t full of typos or broken grammar anymore. They\u2019re smart. Personalized. Often indistinguishable from a real coworker.<\/span><\/p>\n

The FBI has even issued a warning about this new wave of AI-powered attacks. And while email filters are getting better, they\u2019re not keeping up.<\/span><\/p>\n

What\u2019s Changed in 2025<\/b><\/h2>\n
    \n
  • Phishing volumes are up over 1,200%<\/b> due to generative AI use<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Messages now mimic tone, subject matter, and even corporate branding<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Attackers are automating domain registration and sending at scale<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Most filters still rely on static keyword patterns that AI can work around<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    If you\u2019re relying solely on your mail server to catch these, you’re exposed.<\/span><\/p>\n
