I'm doing some mandatory training, and now at part about computers, security and privacy: phishing, encryption, password strength. It's tear-my-hair-out wrong. Also it is almost certainly official policy, so not that kind of wrong. Ignore (like everyone being trained)/cry/both?

So. My organization recently fake phished me. I followed the instructions I had learned in their cybersecurity trainings, was flagged for doing it wrong, and have now been assigned more training. It's a self-perpetuating cycle.

I had a phishing attempt - I wanted to report it properly so I took the link I'd been sent, opened up a clean sandboxed virtual machine and opened the link in a browser configured to log all requests - turned out to be from my organisation and they flagged me as a link-clicker!
