NEW YORK, March 25, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Cybersecurity concerns remain at the center of attention as more attacks are being reported. Just yesterday, Unit 42, part of the Palo Alto Networks, reported that online scams luring victims with promises of a vaccine have been spiking since the start of the pandemic. According to the data phishing attacks largely centered around Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and testing kits in March 2020, government stimulus programs from April through the summer 2020 (including a fake U.S. Trading Commission website that posed as the U.S. Federal Trade Commission in order to steal user credentials) and vaccines from late fall 2020 onward (including a fake Pfizer and BioNTech website also stealing user credentials). "Of note, we found that vaccine-related phishing attacks rose by 530% from December 2020 to February 2021, and that phishing attacks relating to and/or targeting pharmacies and hospitals rose by 189% during that same timeframe," the report claims.
