EU workers frequently encounter suspicious emails and links, highlighting cybersecurity gaps

A Eurobarometer survey found that three in four EU workers have come across suspicious emails or links, with phishing being the most common threat. The report also notes that awareness does not always translate into safe habits, with only 54% checking who sent a message before clicking on a link.

Why it matters. EU organizations and employees are at risk from cyber threats, and the gap between awareness and action needs to be addressed to prevent data breaches and protect personal information.
