all phishing reports with
each other.

The Phishing Incident Reporting
and Termination (
PIRT) Squad is
dedicated to protecting Internet
consumers by taking down
phishing sites.
CyberDefender Early Alert Center analyzes threats and calculates the risk levels of suspicious files and processes that may contain harmful spyware and viruses. This expert system tests and ranks threats on a Universal Severity Scale™, and updates the CyberDefender threat database automatically. Human intervention is required only for technical assurance, ensuring the most updated and accurate threat protection available. This threat assessment process is significantly faster than traditional methods and allows for faster, precise detection, analysis and treatment of malicious viruses, spyware, phishing attempts, dangerous spam and various forms of malware.
