State-backed phishing targets govt employees with fast food lures

Google also revealed that Gmail’s built-in malware scanners have blocked around 18 million phishing and malware emails featuring the pandemic-themed lures within a single week. Google proactively added additional security protection to over 50,000 high-risk accounts to those targeted.
