Screener O365 Plugin

Screener comes with the Report Plugin supporting mail clients or browsers.

The O365 plugin is supporting the web-based Outlook Office365.

This add-in gives your users a safe way to forward suspected Emails with only one click and have them analyzed automatically by Screener. The tool empowers users to proactively participate in an organization’s security program and makes it easy for your employees to report any suspicious email they receive. It has two main features

a) Forward the mail (.msg or .eml) to a predefined mail address (e.g. your security team). Within the plugin, you have the ability to define a custom message that appears to the user after the mail gets reported. Once the message gets forwarded to your team, it will automatically be deleted from the user's inbox to prevent future exposure.
b) Report back to Screener: the plugin may forward suspected phishing emails as well Screener generated emails back to the Screener server via HTTPS or SMTP. If the mail was generated by LUCY, the reports will be automatically identified as phishing simulation. All other emails can be analyzed in Screener automatically at first, then by a Screener user.

Configuration

The configuration of the O365 plugin and phishing events is done within Plugin → O365 Menu.

Settings

Setting Name Description
Logo (ico) Choose an icon for visual representation of plugin's button in the Outlook MSI interface. Once it has been picked up there is a preview and an option to delete icon.
Thank you Lucy The message that will be displayed for all emails, that are created by Lucy within a simulated phishing campaign.
Thank you The message that will be displayed after the user marks a suspected phishing email and pushed the plugin button.
Send Reports Over HTTP Enable this option if you want the Outlook Plugin to send a copy of the reported phishing mail to Screener (does not include emails from phishing simulations). You may specify the Port for Report (default value is 443).
Submit simulation HTTP If the option is enabled, the plugin will send reports regarding phishing simulations to Screener via HTTP.
Send Reports over SMTP Enable this option if you want to forward the mail to the predefined mail address via SMTP. If enabled, the plugin will send the report to the email you provided on the same page. That is supposed to be your own email or the email of your security team. Please do not use this method at the same time with HTTP to send reports to Screener, if you do not want to have duplicated reports. Only pick one delivery method.
Use X-Headers in forwarded emails If true, the plugin will make the following changes in the email forwarded over SMTP:
* Add a new header X-CI-Report: True
* Add an HTML code <p>X-CI-Report: True</p> after the body tag within the email body.
Supress Sim No reports will be sent over HTTP if a user reports a simulation email generated by Screener. So the plugin will send only "real phishing" emails over HTTP.
Disable Autoresponder For Reports If true, Screener will not send an automatic email to a user as a reaction to report.
Deeper Analysis Request If true, the plugin will ask the user whether to request a deeper analysis of the reported phishing mail.
Subject The subject of the forwarded email message when sending a report over SMTP. You may use %subject% variable to insert the subject of the phishing email. Example: Phish Alert %subject%.
Deeper Analysis Request Message Deeper analysis request confirmation text. This message box is shown after user clicks on the report button.
User Request The message that will be displayed after the user marks a suspected phishing email and clicks the plugin button.
User Request Title Title of the message that will be displayed after the user marks a suspected phishing email and clicks the plugin button.

Button Text The name of the area in which the button is located.

Deployment on Apple Computer

Microsoft has "Office for Mac" product, which requires the O365 account to run. When you open Outlook application on Mac, it fetches all plugins from the corresponding O365 account and shows them in the interface, so the plugin is available both in the web interface and on Mac. Therefore, you first need to install the plugin in O365 before you set it up on a MAC.

The installation procedure is the same as for O365 and described above.
