According to fresh ANY.RUN<\/a> data, phishing exposure remains above 70% in several critical industries. This doesn\u2019t happen because organizations aren\u2019t protected enough. Companies have been implementing email filtering, MFA, and phishing-awareness training for years. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, threats continue to evolve, and security methods that were highly effective yesterday can develop visibility gaps as attackers adapt. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this article, ANY.RUN explores data-driven insights to get to the bottom of phishing risk across key industries in the United States and examines how SOC teams can mitigate it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Phishing Risk Remains High Across Critical Industries<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Phishing exposure statistics based on ANY.RUN submissions data, 2026<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

As the statistics show, very different industries face almost the same level of phishing<\/a> exposure. For several critical industries, that exposure is above average. According to ANY.RUN data, phishing exposure reaches 73.4%<\/strong> in finance<\/a> and 72.2%<\/strong> in manufacturing<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Part of the reason lies in how quickly threat actors evolve and adapt their techniques. AI makes convincing social engineering easier to scale, while techniques such as AiTM phishing and session theft make identity compromise increasingly difficult to prevent. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Phishing campaigns increasingly combine sophisticated social engineering with identity-focused techniques, legitimate services, and evasive delivery methods. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The types of submissions most frequently analyzed in ANY.RUN\u2019s Interactive Sandbox<\/a> also show that email security alone cannot cover the entire attack surface: <\/p>\n\n\n\n
