/me sheepishly acquiesces to Dan publically.

Dan is right, I am wrong.  After consulting our resident grammar expert, I have been corrected.  My apologies to Dan 
for incorrectly attributing a grammatical error to his piece.  I was going to bet on it too ;)

"Methods" is an object in the sentence. I think what's confusing you is
that it comes ahead of the subject, which is "attack."

Sorry, you're wrong on this one.  Only if your structure was "The hardware-level phishing attack" as the object and 
not "methods" would you be correct.  But it's not....  The methods "are," not the methods "is."  You might have 
intended that to be the case, but you didn't write it like that.
