QR Code

Since the start of 2023, INKY has incorporated QR Code detection methods into our processing. Due to a recent surge in QR Code-related threats, we've now introduced a distinct QR Code threat category, rather than keeping it as a behind-the-scenes flag. This category is enabled by default. However, it can be toggled on/off at: https://app.inkyphishfence.com/settings/analysis.

If INKY identifies a QR code in a message, that message will be marked with a "QR Code" result and assigned a "Caution" or "Danger" threat level, based on other suspicious content found.

Admins also have the flexibility to customize the QR code policy text and its associated URL. By default, emails with detected QR Codes will include the specific notification text below.

Beware of unexpected QR codes from unknown senders.
