Why has phishing become a bigger threat than spam? How are attackers using AI to improve their success rate? Why do WordPress sites get compromised so often? And how can hosting companies deliver good email while blocking abuse? In this episode, Ken Simpson, founder and CEO of MailChannels, explains how the email landscape has changed and why hosting companies are dealing with more pressure than ever. We talk about real fraud cases, the rise of automated attacks, and the growing need to analyse sender behaviour instead of relying on simple rules.
