certain HR functions), so we would regularly receive legitimate e-mails from random third party senders that looked like phishing scams! The only way to not risk failing your random phishing test was to report everything, and not take action on anything using an outsourced provider until you'd received a go-ahead from the security people (which could take days). But the company also outsourced a lot of things (e.g. just a couple from personal experience:Īt a previous job, we were randomly tested with spoof phishing scams, to see who would bite.

The team says that modern browsers support all the necessary web standards that allow developers to create rich media without having to resort to Flash. The Edge team cites performance, power consumption, and security as the main reasons for this move. This won't be the last time Microsoft visits this topic, either-the company says it "will provide users additional control over the use of Flash" in the future. Microsoft says that Edge ought to recognize and not affect Flash content that's integral to a page, like videos or games.
