Online Scam Volumes Double to Overtake Phishing
Akamai research found that scam detections reached six million in the second quarter of 2026, with scam volumes doubling and now exceeding phishing incidents. The shift reflects an evolving threat landscape where broad-based scams have become more prevalent than targeted phishing attacks.
Why it matters: Security teams and organizations need to reassess detection and response priorities, as scams now represent a larger volume threat than phishing and may require different mitigation strategies.
