H1 2025 - Adversarial AI: Attacker Innovation Escalates Advanced Email Threats

Learn how the malicious use of AI is amplifying the impact of BEC, VEC, and phishing attacks in our latest threat report.

Información clave

77% of advanced email attacks detected between July–December 2024 were classified as phishing.

Business email compromise attacks grew by over 50% between 2023 and 2024.

Organizations faced a 70% chance of receiving at least one vendor email compromise attack per week in 2024.

Generative AI enables threat actors to craft phishing, BEC, and VEC attacks nearly indistinguishable from legitimate communications.

The modern email threat landscape is defined by constant evolution, with cybercriminals continually responding to heightened awareness and improved defenses with new attack strategies designed to outmaneuver traditional defenses.

Generative AI has further amplified the problem, allowing threat actors to create highly sophisticated phishing, business email compromise (BEC), and vendor email compromise (VEC) attacks that appear nearly identical to legitimate communications.

In our latest email threat report, we explore how advanced email threats have escalated in recent months and the role malicious AI has played in making this high-stakes battle between attackers and defenders even more intense.
