A week ago, the Information Technology department worked with SUNY SOC (Security Operations Center) and conducted a phishing training campaign. A total of 232 emails containing “Corning E-mail Server Upgrade” Phishing content was sent out to full-time employees and 67% of the recipients opened the email. From that 67% only about 13% clicked on the link, this resulted in 9% of those who received the email clicked the link and submitted information. IT discussed our results with SUNY, in comparison to the 2016 Verizon data breach research where 12% of the recipients opened the link, we had 13% opened. IT would also like to thank everyone for participating in this phishing training campaign and thank you for your cooperation. Keep in mind, we will be conducting more training campaigns in the future so please continue to question the validity of your received emails. Remember, when in doubt, please give us a shout!
