# Conducting Phishing Incident Response
## When to Use
- A user reports receiving a suspicious email via the phishing report button or abuse mailbox
- Email gateway detects a malicious email that bypassed initial filtering
- Threat intelligence indicates an active phishing campaign targeting the organization
- A user confirms they clicked a link or opened an attachment from a suspicious email
- Credentials have been entered on a suspected phishing page
**Do not use** for business email compromise (BEC) involving compromised internal accounts; use BEC response procedures which focus on account takeover investigation.
