Incident Report

We are currently investigating an issue with the formatting of Hoxhunt Report emails of reported threats via Gmail. When a user reports a real threat (not a Hoxhunt simulation) via the Hoxhunt button in Gmail, a Hoxhunt Report email is created. The formatting of this email depends on the Threat Forwarding Forward settings in the Hoxhunt Admin portal. Currently it has been confirmed that when the setting "Reported email included as an attachment" is active, this setting is not honored and the reported email is instead visible in the body. We will continue to investigate the cause of the issue. When identified we will inform you.
