Phishing, The 43% Option

Filed under: Cybersecurity,Politics,Security — Patrick Durusau @ 2:54 pm

How’s that for a motivational poster?

You can, and some do, spend hours plumbing in the depths of code or chip design for vulnerabilities.

Or, you can look behind door #2, the phishing door, and find 43% of data breaches start with phishing.

Phishing doesn’t have the glamor or prestige of finding a Meltdown or Spectre bug.

But, on the other hand, do you want to breach a congressional email account for the 2018 mid-term election, or for the 2038 election?

Just so you know, no rumors of breached congressional email accounts have surfaced, at least not yet.

Ping me if you see any such news.
