About PhishCloud
PhishCloud unifies IT, OT, and the human layer into one AI-driven defense fabric, delivering real-time phishing protection, cross-domain visibility, and automated response.
Before Cyber Fusion Was a Buzzword, Terry McCorkle Built It in the Field
Long before cyber fusion became a security framework, Terry was already practicing it—blending signals, human behavior, and operational workflows into unified defense:
The Pattern Across Hundreds of Operations
From battlefield comms to critical infrastructure assessments, Terry saw the same systemic flaw: security fails not because of a single weakness, but because teams, tools, and domains operate separately.
One of the First to See It
Terry was among the first cybersecurity leaders to integrate OT, IT, and human-layer signals into a single operational framework. His "100 Bugs in 100 Days" project—exposing 1,000+ vulnerabilities across 48 vendors—proved organizations were drowning in data but blind to connections.
💡 The Core Insight
Cyber Fusion isn't another security framework—it's the operating system that connects your people, systems, and processes into a single defensive organism. PhishCloud operationalizes the methodology Terry refined over 20+ years, turning fragmented visibility into unified defense. The same approach protecting national security, now defending critical infrastructure.

Building the Cyber Fusion Era
From phishing defense to unified AI-driven security operations
PhishCloud Founded
Terry McCorkle launches PhishCloud in June to operationalize the cyber fusion methodology he refined over 20+ years in military and critical infrastructure operations.
The Core Pattern
Across hundreds of operations, Terry identified the systemic flaw: security fails because teams, tools, and domains operate separately. Organizations were drowning in data but blind to connections.
Originator, Not Follower
Terry was one of the first to integrate OT, IT, and human-layer signals into a unified framework—long before "cyber fusion" became an industry term.
Not a Product—A Methodology
PhishCloud isn't just software. It's the operationalization of a proven defense system—turning fragmented visibility into a single defensive organism.
First Platform Launch
PhishCloud introduced real-time visibility into phishing attempts across browsers, email, and collaboration tools.
Real-Time Detection
Security teams gained instant visibility into phishing attempts across all communication channels.
Cross-Platform Coverage
Unified protection across browsers, email clients, and collaboration tools like Slack and Teams.
Automated Response
Immediate threat containment without waiting for manual security team intervention.
Phish360° AI Analyst
AI-powered analyst classifies links in 1.8 seconds, turning every employee into a protected endpoint.
Sub-2-Second Analysis
AI classifies malicious links in just 1.8 seconds on average, faster than any human analyst.
Zero-Day Protection
Catches never-before-seen threats that bypass traditional signature-based defenses.
Continuous Learning
AI model improves with every analyzed threat, getting smarter as attack patterns evolve.
Cyber Fusion Center Strategy
PhishCloud introduces custom CFC professional services, helping organizations unify IT, OT, AI, and human telemetry into a single defense strategy.
IT + OT Integration
Custom professional services helping organizations unify enterprise IT security with operational technology infrastructure protection.
Human Layer Defense
Monitors employee behavior patterns to detect social engineering and insider threats in real time.
Military-Grade Methodology
Built on DoD fusion center principles proven in national security operations.
Why PhishCloud Exists
Critical infrastructure operators are drowning in data but blind to connections. We exist to unify what's been fragmented: IT security, OT operations, and facility management into one defense strategy.
Without Cyber Fusion
Silos, blind spots, reactive failures
IT Can't Speak OT
IT security monitors networks. OT teams manage production. Neither understands the other's alerts or priorities.
Equipment Failure Goes Unnoticed
Building management system shows energy spike. No one correlates it with production degradation.
Security Incident Escalates
Attacker moves from IT to OT. Security team sees anomaly but doesn't understand operational impact.
Production Halts
Operations team discovers breach only after production line stops. Days of downtime begin. Revenue loss mounts.
Forensics Reveal the Truth
All the signals were there. IT saw network traffic. Facilities saw power anomalies. OT saw equipment behavior changes. No one connected them.
❌ Result: Preventable Failure
Fragmented teams, disconnected data sources, and siloed operations created blind spots attackers exploited. Production loss, security breach, and reputational damage—all preventable with unified visibility.
With Cyber Fusion Strategy
Unified operations, predictive intelligence
Data Sources Unified
IT security, OT telemetry, and building management data flow into one correlation engine.
Anomaly Detected Early
Energy spike in HVAC correlates with unusual network traffic. Fusion Center flags potential failure or security event.
Teams Coordinate
IT, OT, and facilities teams receive unified alert with full context. Operational and security implications understood.
Threat Contained, Operations Protected
Security isolates compromised systems. Operations reroutes production. Zero downtime achieved.
Predictive Intelligence Applied
Patterns identified across domains inform future operations. Equipment failures predicted before they happen. Security improves.
✓ Result: Continuous Operations
Cyber Fusion methodology connected the dots IT, OT, and facilities teams couldn't see alone. Security threat contained, equipment failure prevented, production maintained. This is what unified visibility delivers.
