Here\u2019s what Gmail, Outlook and Apple Mail users need to know.<\/p>\n<p>A new analysis of phishing attacks published Jan. 07 by Netskope Threat Labs, has revealed that, across 2024, the number of dangerous clicks has increased nearly threefold compared to 2023. Blaming the increase on cognitive fatigue with users being bombarded by so many phishing emails that they become oblivious to the threat, coupled with the evolution of click-attack threats by increasingly confident attackers, Netskope warned that more than 8 out of every 1,000 users were now clicking on the malicious links. \u201cThis is a massive increase,\u201d the researchers said, \u201cand represents a significantly bigger threat posed by phishing to people and organizations.\u201d Blaming the increase on cognitive fatigue, Ray Canzanese, head of the Netskope Threat Labs, said that the number of people clicking on links is increasing \u201cbecause people are being bombarded with phishing links from all directions: email, social media, ads in search engine results, and all over the web.\u201d The use of personal apps, including webmail apps, was also quoted as a significant risk to organizations as well as consumers.<\/p>\n<p>Google itself recently warned users of a second wave of cyberattacks, mostly phishing-related, that was hitting email users. Andy Wen, Gmail\u2019s senior director of product management, said that the \u201cattackers are very persistent.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/daveywinder\/2025\/01\/08\/do-not-click-new-gmail-outlook-apple-mail-warning-for-billions\/\">Read the Full Story Here<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Source: Forbes<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A newly published analysis has revealed that, across the whole of 2024, click-attacks all but tripled compared to the year before.
