Phishing attacks, particularly those which are targeted and personalized, and phishing URLs have become so widespread, hard to identify as malicious and successful in achieving their goals of theft, fraud and corporate espionage, that it's of paramount importance we maintain an industry-leading detection rate to apply to our products and services so our customers remain safe and secure online.'
