For phishing and fraud researchers

Direct answer

Can this audience use PhishNet without a platform account? Yes. Public research, dashboards, reports, data products, citations and media assets are available without login; operational datasets require access.

The audience problem

Researchers need reproducible snapshots, source provenance, bias notes, confirmation states and datasets that can be cited.

What PhishNet uniquely observes

PhishNet exposes public-safe dataset pages and research articles, then offers authenticated access to deeper graph, evidence and export layers.

Public-safe evidence

These pages surface only sanitized cards, trend snippets, source families and methodology. Operational IOCs, evidence and graph pivots stay in the authenticated platform.

Best next step

Start with the research library and request dataset access or collaboration for operational-depth studies.

How PhishNet uses this

Inside PhishNet this topic is treated as operational graph context: observations are linked to sources, evidence, Belgian relevance, confirmation state, liveness, campaigns and exports. Public pages explain the method; authenticated users can pivot into the full platform workflow when a signal needs investigation or handoff.

Selected sources and research

These pages combine PhishNet platform knowledge with public research, official Belgian sources and open OSINT documentation.
