    Article summary

    Managed Phishing Response is Red Canary’s solution for handling user-reported phishing emails. It integrates with native and third-party inbox reporting buttons to collect and assess non-simulated emails reported by end users. The solution combines AI-powered triage with expert human analysis and reliable automations to reduce the operational burden user-reported emails place on internal teams, saving time and resources while strengthening security culture and accelerating response to confirmed phishing emails.

    How Managed Phishing Response Works

    Here’s a high-level overview of how this solution works:

    1. A user reports a suspicious email using your organization’s inbox reporting button.

    2. The email is automatically forwarded by your reporting tool to your Red Canary Collector.

    3. Our platform processes and renders the new reported phish in your portal for assessment.

    4. An initial triage report of the new reported phish is generated by our Phishing Triage Agent.

    5. A Red Canary Analyst reviews and completes the investigation, finalizing the assessment.

    6. Automated playbooks notify you of confirmed phishes, and deliver feedback to the reporter.

    Supported Tools and Environments

    To integrate this solution into your environment, you’ll need:

    • A Microsoft Exchange or Google Workspace email environment
