Cyberattackers target people. They exploit people. Ultimately, they are people. That’s why the Human Factor report series focuses on how technology and psychology combine to make people so susceptible to modern cyberthreats.
In its second edition, The Human Factor: Phishing report examines URL phishing threats that rely on URLs to deliver a malicious payload.

- At least 55% of suspected SMS phishing (‘smishing’) messages contained malicious URLs
- Approximately 34% of URL-based malware campaigns delivered remote access software
