Phishing simulation
What is report rate?
The percentage of people who reported a suspicious message rather than ignoring or clicking it.
In more detail
A high report rate is a stronger positive signal than a low click rate, because it measures an action that actually shortens an incident. Ignoring a phishing email is not a win — it leaves the attack running against everyone else.
Why it matters
Reporting is the only behavior in the whole category that directly reduces the cost of a real attack.
