QuinnyPig roasts phishing tests: if one click can destroy the network, the security team failed
HankYeomans · x · 2026-09-17
Cloud security veteran QuinnyPig calls out corporate phishing simulations: after clicking a test email, he was blamed for failing, with the warning that a real click "would have destroyed the company network." His retort: if a single click can take down the network, the flaw is in the security architecture, not the employee. A pointed critique of blame-the-user security culture.
