The IT department at work decided to do some cyber security training today by sending out a fake phishing email to a random group of employees. I was not selected in the random group so was not directly impacted. Several of my co-workers in my Division were selected and one fell for the scam. He and another co-worker were greatly angered by the exercise even tho there were no repercussions for falling for the fake email. I was surprised by the strong feelings and resentment that these two co-workers had. They felt that they were being tricked and that they were not trusted by their employer. I am just curious whether this type of training is common and if others would feel the same way as these two co-workers.
