Just being proactive...

So a week or so ago my boss came up to me and informed me I was reassigned cybersec training. This is a two-ish hour class about not clicking questionable things in emails. I told him I'd already taken that course this year and was told I had "mishandled" one of the fake phishing emails from the company. I knew exactly what email he was talking about and told him I didn't click the link in the email. Apparently by not reporting it as a phishing attempt I had failed the test. "We need to be proactive."
Since that day I have been reporting every link containing email I receive as a potential phishing attempt. This includes all the alerts sent out via their sharepoint and emails from my supervisor. I'm not sure how this will play out but I feel better wasting someone else's time since they're so determined to waste mine.

Be careful though... CyberSec aren't likely good ones to piss off ... at least not in my work. 🤷‍♀️
@sarabee1995 I don't work for the government. The IT people at my work are inept at best

Years ago I worked at UPS. Loss prevention found an open package under a conveyor belt. They accoused me of steeling. I was supposed to call them if any packages were open. I called this like 10 times a day. After a week they finally said ok you proved your point dont call us any more. hahahhaha
@Confined I love it! Their ideas are never in good in practice as they are on paper.
Omf thats so unjust!! Im sorry sarah <3
@TryingtoLava it's okay. If they make me retake the class I'll do it on a saturday so they pay me double time for it (:

I think this website has corrupted me. I read that as cybersex training.

That being said, I love the way you handled that.

I laughed so hard because you are reporting all the emails with links. I love how you think 🤭.
