By Eric Howes,  KnowBe4 Principal Lab Researcher.

It's no secret that the threat of phishing emails has been growing at an alarming rate for a number of years. Indeed, ZDNet recently reported that 1 of every 100 emails is now malicious in one way or another, "likely to deliver malware, conduct spear-phishing, commit fraud or other activity conducted by cyber criminals."

Thus, it should surprise no one that cybercrime has become an incredibly lucrative endeavor, pulling in an estimated $1 million per minute for malicious actors.
