Phishing attacks continue to be a prevalent threat to organizational security, exploiting human vulnerabilities rather than technical weaknesses. In fact, DNSFilter saw phishing attempts increase across our network by 203% YoY in 2024.
Every year at DNSFilter, we like to do our best to predict the future when it comes to cybersecurity. You might know this already if you’ve read the blog by our CTO, TK Keanini, about his 2025 cybersecurity predictions. We also like to review our predictions to see how well we did overall- it’s nice to keep score.
You lock your doors at night, secure your office, and ensure sensitive information is under strict control. But what if the biggest vulnerability in your business wasn't locked away at all? For most companies, their Domain Name System (DNS) is the gateway attackers are waiting for. It's a fundamental part of the internet's infrastructure, yet it's often ignored when it comes to security. Hackers know this, and they're taking advantage.
