QR Codes are now available for use in phishing simulations
You can now send out phishing simulations containing QR codes to your end users. These types of scams are now commonly used by cyber criminals to bypass email link filters, and it's essential to prepare your users to face these scams in their inboxes.
To send out a simulation using QR codes, create a new phishing campaign and find one of the email templates with 'QR' in the name, or simply drag-and-drop a QR code to your custom email templates.
New templates
Phishing templates with QR codes
To help you train and assess your users from the get-go, we've researched and recreated some of the most common and dangerous QR code phishing attacks as templates within uPhish.
Many of these templates revolve around MFA-related scams, as this is a regular theme of quishing. Find templates in the uPhish library today whether your clients use Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, or other popular business software.
New courses
