Whitelisting Phishing Domains

Attack Simulations

This article explains how to whitelist and verify phishing domains within the OutThink platform. Whitelisting a domain ensures it can be used for phishing simulation campaigns. Verification is completed via a one-time passcode (OTP) sent to the account’s registered email address. 

Step 1: Navigate to Settings 

Log in to your OutThink account. Click the Settings icon located in the top right corner of the platform. 

Step 2: Open Domains & Whitelisting 

In the left-hand navigation panel, locate the Phishing section. Click on Domains and Whitelisting. All configured domains will be displayed on this page.

Step 3: Initiate Domain Verification 

Locate the domain you wish to verify in the list. Click the Verify icon next to the domain. A confirmation prompt will appear click Yes Continue to proceed. 

Step 4: Enter the OTP 

A new page will appear prompting you to enter a One-Time Passcode (OTP). The OTP will be sent to the email address associated with your OutThink account. Enter the OTP in the provided field and submit. 

Note: Check your spam or junk folder if you do not receive the OTP within a few minutes. This will not work if DMI method is selected for Email delivery.

Step 5: Verification Complete 

Once the OTP is successfully validated, the domain will be marked as verified and will be ready for use in phishing simulation campaigns.
