# Cutting-Edge Defense Against Emerging Threats

Email threats are evolving at an alarming rate, with a significant number slipping past your secure email gateway (SEG) and landing directly in your users’ inboxes. Social engineering attacks are honing in on your most vulnerable users with increasing frequency. According to the 2023 Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report, email remains the leading cause of data breaches. ArmorBlox researchers have found that a staggering 56% of all attacks manage to evade outdated security filters. The bottom line? Traditional email security measures are failing, allowing these digital threats to reach your users' inboxes.

PhishER saves us a ton of time. The majority of emails reported by users are automatically analyzer by PhishER and automatically removed from inboxes.  Without it, I'd have to expand our team because it would be too much for us to manage.

**Critical infrastructure organization**

With so many employees and the volume of phishing emails we receive, I think PhishER is essential to provide feedback and automated analysis.

**Marketing technology company.**
