An engineer is instructed to run a simulation that tracks how many people read certain messages and captures data from recipients who click an embedded link. The engineer decides to leverage specialized social engineering software. Which approach fulfills these requirements?
Rely on a publicly accessible form that prompts recipients to submit their details after opening the message
Deploy a customized scenario that records who reads the message and logs data when they click the embedded link
Distribute a prebuilt test through a third-party tool that lacks embedded tracking features
Collect email read receipts through unsecured channels and compile them manually
A custom campaign that logs when recipients read the message and gathers additional details after they follow the embedded link supplies complete visibility into engagement. Other options either do not track activity properly, involve insecure channels, or use separate platforms that can interrupt data collection.
