What Is Phishing Reporting?
Phishing reporting allows employees to flag suspicious emails directly from Outlook and Microsoft 365 using a single click. Reported emails feed into automated analysis, AI-powered triage, threat intelligence and remediation workflows, helping organisations detect and remove phishing attacks faster.

One-Click Reporting in Outlook
Outlook is a primary entry point for phishing attacks. A one-click reporting button lets employees flag suspicious emails directly from their inbox, no forwarding, no helpdesk tickets. Each report feeds straight into your security team's AI-powered threat triage workflow and into the global intelligence network, strengthening live detection for everyone.
Common threats reaching Outlook inboxes:
- Credential harvesting emails
- Fake Microsoft login pages
- Malicious SharePoint links
- Business email compromise
- Supplier impersonation
Microsoft Defender and Phishing Reporting Work Better Together
Phishing reporting complements Microsoft Defender by identifying attacks that successfully reach employee inboxes.

Employees Are Your First Detection Layer
Users often spot suspicious emails before automated controls do. When reporting is simple and fast, every employee becomes a detection sensor, feeding real threats directly to your SOC for triage.
Modern reporting transforms employees into active security contributors, providing intelligence that automated controls alone cannot generate.
Structured reporting helps teams:
- Identify threats faster
- Accelerate investigations
- Reduce exposure time
- Strengthen incident response
- Improve SOC visibility
