Larger companies initiated programs for training their employees on how to detect phishing attempts, but despite increased awareness about this type of threat, the accuracy level is still quite low.
An
online quiz designed to test users’ phishing knowledge reveals that the risk of a business suffering damage as a result of a fraudulent email is still far from being eliminated.
Created by McAfee, the quiz presents ten emails to the participants with phishing samples scattered, asking them to mark them as a valid or invalid email.
In an email sent on Friday, the security company said that the quiz was launched to the publilc in May and more than 20,000 individuals in 48 countries took the test.
