Credential phishing is the origin of 95% of data breaches and the number one cause of ransomware in the public sector. Credential theft of email and other business collaboration accounts at public organizations can result in a number of devastating outcomes. For example, it can result in sensitive personal data leaks and lateral opportunities for adversaries to compromise further accounts and deliver ransomware.
