How to Whitelist Threatcop by Email Header in Google Workspace
Whitelist by Email Header in Google Workspace
If your organization uses Google Workspace, you can ensure delivery of Threatcop’s simulated phishing emails by whitelisting them using email headers. This is done by applying a Content Compliance rule that identifies Threatcop’s unique email header, allowing our simulation emails to reach users’ inboxes successfully.
⚠ Recommendation:
We suggest using this method only if your organization relies on a cloud-based spam filter in combination with Google Workspace.
If you are using Google Workspace alone (without an additional spam filter), we recommend whitelisting by IP address instead. Refer to our Whitelisting by IP Address in Google Workspace guide for detailed instructions.
Additionally, if you use a third-party cloud spam filter, you will need to whitelist Threatcop’s IP addresses or hostnames in that filter as well. This ensures complete and uninterrupted delivery of our simulated phishing emails.
🔎 Important Note:
This article reflects Threatcop’s latest best practices for whitelisting. However, email providers may update their filtering mechanisms over time. If you face any difficulties applying these settings, please reach out to the Threatcop Support Team for assistance.
