Twice a year we conduct a simulated phishing exercise for employees. Much like our twice-a-year cyber security training, the phishing simulation is required by both our Cyber Insurance provider and our Financial Auditors. This spring we had a first – no one clicked on the link in the simulated phish! In fact, 63% of people didn’t even open the email. This has never happened in the 4 years we’ve been doing this cyber training.

That’s great because I suspect everyone’s phishing-sense was triggered by the email. So you were cautious and not fooled by it! Keep watching for red flags in emails and exercise that phishing-sense.
