Tag: The Biggest Phisher

Thanks again to everyone who was able to join The Biggest Phisher awards call this afternoon. We will be working with HR to notify the winners…and if you missed it, our winners were: Neil Robinson and Nicole Babilya (the Biggest Phishers) and Jeanne Sutherland and Mai Bui (the Biggest Phish Writers).

But… you’re all winners! We’ll be putting our SMU Cybersecurity Challenge coins in the mail to you sometime in the next week or so.

You asked for the final leaderboard…and this is the complete list: Continue reading The Biggest Phisher: The Results!

And that’s a wrap!

You did it!

You made it to the end of the Biggest Phisher!

You are now one of the most highly trained phish spotters ever! Throughout the month, you received 22 of the most challenging phishing messages we’ve ever sent here at SMU. Overall, 93% of the time, y’all didn’t click… and y’all kept getting better throughout the month!

At this point in the email, I usually insert the leaderboard. But you’ll have to tune in on November 5, 2020, at 1 p.m. to find out the winners! (You don’t have to be present to win, I’ll let you know either way). It was a real nail biter right up until the end.

Thank you again for being a part of this! I hope you had some fun. Continue reading The Biggest Phisher: Final Week Wrap Up

There was a huge shakeup this week, and now one phisher has taken sole control of first place. But there are still a lot of phishers in striking distance as we head into the home stretch! The top 30 phishers all still have a chance to take the title home!

It was an exciting week with a lot of movement on the leaderboard, but we’re back to a nine-way tie for first! There’s a seven-way tie for second and a six-way tie for third, so this is still anyone’s game!

I’m also excited to let you know that my new book on cybersecurity, Well Aware, is coming out next week. I’ll technically be out on vacation for the book launch, but I’m having so much fun with this project I’ll still be logging in to keep track of the scores and send you updates. So, if you see an out of office message from me, it’s not a phish! Don’t worry though, keep the reports coming in!
