Phishing Off a Peer: How Threat Actors Use Third Parties to Execute Advanced Phishing Campaign

In early 2023, BlueVoyant’s cyber threat analysts identified and began investigating a new phishing tactic: third-party phishing.

Third-party phishing campaigns use intermediary sites that redirect victims to a phishing site impersonating a brand they trust. The third-party or intermediary site allows the threat actors to better evade detection and collect credentials from customers of a wider array of companies.

The scale, complexity, and successful deployment of advanced evasion mechanisms make this phishing technique far more efficient and effective than traditional standalone phishing sites.
