Mine gives useless bonus points for forwarding the test email or an actual phishing mail to their special security scanner account.
Why not just have the security scanner before it hits an inbox?
Filters will catch 90% of spam/phishing but there's always something new that will slip through to inbox.
There is, but if one gets through, they want us to forward it to this account that will be used to train, fine tune and improve the scanner for all mailboxes, as well as security training for employees.
That makes sense, I thought the security scanner was only triggered if someone forwarded an email after it landed in an inbox.
