A friend told me about a company where the CISO instigated security newsletters aimed at staff to build up their experience on such topics, yet the newsletters were emailed from an external email and contained links to a hosting site that wasn't related to any of the employers regular website domains and like this case would often come across as a phishing attempt, especially when they ran competitions (apparently they appeared too good to be true, as friend's employer was famously tight!)
- mnw21cam 1y agoEvery weekly newsletter I get at work is sent from an external spam-sender, containing links to an external hosting site that have a unique ID for tracking clicks. Those links are then munged by Outlook which makes them hard to identify. I searched on the company web site for any confirmation that the external sender or external hosting site were legitimately being used by the company and found none, so I refuse to click on those links. I should also report them as phishing scams really.
