What is anti-phishing intelligence sharing (APWG)?
The Anti-Phishing Working Group (APWG) is an international coalition sharing phishing threat intelligence. Members include financial institutions, tech companies, security vendors, and law enforcement from over 2,200 organizations.
APWG maintains the eCrime database tracking phishing URLs globally. Members contribute data and receive access to shared intelligence. This enables faster response: when one member detects a campaign, others benefit immediately.
Beyond data sharing, APWG coordinates research, publishes trend reports, and facilitates law enforcement cooperation across jurisdictions. Their work helps the ecosystem respond collectively to phishing threats.
