Nearly half of workers have clicked on a phishing link

Out of 714 employees polled by GetApp, almost half said someone from their organisation clicked a phishing link. GedApp’s new report sheds more light on the dangers of phishing and how little organisations really do to protect themselves.

The report claims that almost a quarter of businesses have been victims of such an attack. At the same time, they’re not doing enough to protect themselves. Roughly two thirds use two-factor authentication, which means that the rest is wide open for cyberincidents. Just over a quarter train their employees on the dangers of the internet, teaching them how to spot phishing emails and malicious software.
