钓鱼围栏横幅常见问题解答

The banners are inserted by Phish Fence to alert you of any possible threats in your emails. The banners also display the email sender’s address and mark if an email is internal (from someone in your organization) or external. 如果你看到这些横幅, it means that your IT staff has deployed Phish Fence and included you in the group of protected users.

A 灰色的旗帜 indicates that Phish Fence did not find anything unusual or suspicious about the message. Even though the message was not classified as threatening, you should always check the displayed sender address and the source type to be sure it makes sense (e.g., an external webmail address for a message from a colleague may be cause for concern).

A 黄色的旗帜 indicates that Phish Fence found something unusual about the email message. It is not necessarily phishing or dangerous but something you should be aware of. For example, a request for sensitive personal information should be given extra scrutiny. Mail that seems out of the ordinary or is 垃圾邮件my in some way may receive a 黄色的旗帜.

A 红色的旗帜 indicates that Phish Fence thinks the message is suspicious and likely to be phishing or dangerous in some other way. This includes brand impersonations (e.g., a fake “account alert” email from your IT department), 被拦截的钓鱼网址, or attempts to spoof mail to look like it came from an internal company account.

Look carefully at who the mail is from and whether it is from someone you trust. Be especially careful about clicking any links in the body of the email or opening any attachments.

In most cases, you can simply delete the message and move on. In many Phish Fence deployments, 您的IT提供商, 安全团队, or email administrator will configure your mail server to quarantine or delete “red-flagged” mail before it reaches your mailbox. In other cases, the mail will still be delivered with the banner telling you to be careful.

If you think Phish Fence has made a wrong classification, or if you just want to confirm that Inky got it correct, click the “Report This Email” link found in the bottom right corner of each banner. This will take you to a web form where you can indicate that the message is truly Safe, 垃圾邮件, 或网络钓鱼. You can also provide a comment describing your assessment. This feedback is used to automatically improve Phish Fence’s predictions in the future. Your submissions are also manually reviewed to improve the overall system and ensure Inky provides the most accurate security possible.

Part of Phish Fence’s protection is the ability to perform real-time checks on any links you click. 如果该特性已启用, clicking on links in a yellow or 红色的旗帜 email will take you to a page reiterating that Phish Fence found the message to be unusual or suspicious. 在某些情况下, a message that originally only had a grey banner contains a link that is later detected as a dangerous phishing URL. 在这种情况下, 当你点击链接, Phish Fence’s real-time check will detect you clicked on a bad link, and you’ll be met with a blocker page alerting you of that fact.

Please contact your IT staff, 安全团队, or email administrator who can pass your feedback along to the appropriate Phish Fence support person. They will be able to fine-tune your policies and settings to help make things work as smoothly as possible.
