In 2025, AI-powered phishing attacks are set to become more sophisticated and harder to detect according to Usman Choudhary, Chief Product & Technology Officer at VIPRE Security Group  Cybercriminals will use AI to create highly personalized scams, leveraging publicly available data and advanced language capabilities. These attacks will often be multi-stage, starting with seemingly harmless communication that gradually builds trust before delivering malicious payloads. Platforms like Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace will be prime targets, with attackers exploiting their weaknesses for credential theft. Ransomware actors will combine phishing with social engineering tactics to manipulate victims into downloading dangerous files. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) will be particularly vulnerable due to limited cybersecurity resources. These businesses may not only face direct attacks but could also be used as stepping stones for larger-scale supply chain attacks targeting bigger enterprises. As cyber threats evolve, SMEs must stay ahead by enhancing their cybersecurity strategies and fostering employee awareness to mitigate risks.
