RSAC 2024: Zscaler Takes Deeper Cut at the Phishing-AI Combo

Sam Curry, global VP and CISO in residence with Zscaler, joins Dark Reading's Terry Sweeney at News Desk during the RSA Conference to discuss the findings from the company’s annual phishing report and it’s not good news: A nearly 60% increase in phishing attacks, driven almost entirely by AI. And artificial intelligence has also allowed phishers to craft and execute more sophisticated and elusive attacks. In addition to deconstructing new and emerging phishing tactics, Curry offers some mitigation tips to blunt the effectiveness of these powerful attacks.

Sam Curry is VP & CISO at Zscaler and a Fellow at the National Security Institute. Prior to Zscaler, Sam was CSO & CPO at Cybereason, CTO & CISO for Arbor Networks (NetScout) and was CSO & SVP R&D at Microstrategy. He has also held executive roles at McAfee and CA.
