Hot Take:

Browser security is like flossing – you know you should do it, but it’s easy to ignore until it’s too late. And with Gen-AI pulling a sneaky “Mission Impossible” on your browser, you might find yourself caught in a web of deception faster than you can say “phish.” So, next time you’re surfing the web, remember: just because it’s not a shark doesn’t mean it’s not dangerous!

Key Points:

  • Browser-based phishing attacks have surged by 140% in the past year.
  • Zero-hour phishing attacks increased by 130%.
  • Gen-AI is being used to create sophisticated phishing sites and attacks.
  • Phishing-as-a-service (PhaaS) is on the rise, with Tycoon 2FA as a leading platform.
  • Combining mobile browsers and auto-login features creates a perfect storm for attackers.

Okay, deep breath, let's get this over with. In the grand act of digital self-sabotage, we've littered this site with cookies. Yep, we did that. Why? So your highness can have a 'premium' experience or whatever. These traitorous cookies hide in your browser, eagerly waiting to welcome you back like a guilty dog that's just chewed your favorite shoe. And, if that's not enough, they also tattle on which parts of our sad little corner of the web you obsess over. Feels dirty, doesn't it?
