Allow-listing by IP address in Google Workspace
Allow-listing SiberMate IP addresses in Google Workspace has two steps:
- Adding SiberMate IP addresses to the Google Workspace allow-list
- Adding SiberMate IP addresses as Inbound Gateways
Adding IP addresses to the allow-list will help emails get through without falling into the spam folder - whereas adding domains such as Inbound Gateways will help you get rid of warning messages that could otherwise tip your users off to their simulated phishing emails.
STEP ONE: Add SiberMate IP addresses to the Google Workspace allow-list
- Log in to https://admin.google.com
- Navigate to Apps -> Google Workspace -> Gmail
- Scroll down to the bottom of the Gmail settings page and click Spam, Phishing, and Malware
- Select Email whitelist which is the first option.
- Enter the SiberMate IP addresses in the Email whitelist section, separated by commas. The SiberMate IP addresses are:
198.21.6.191 168.245.56.242 99.80.168.14
- Click Save. It may take up to an hour for the changes to apply to all users.
STEP TWO: Add SiberMate's IP addresses as Inbound Gateways
Google Workspace will automatically tag some emails as suspicious if it believes there's a chance they are phishing-related and may add banners to them to notify users of increased risk.
This could be a yellow 'Be careful' banner...
Or a red 'This message seems dangerous' banner.
To better assess your users' vulnerability to phishing, you will want to ensure that these banners do not show up during your simulated phishing campaigns. Follow the instructions below to prevent these banners from appearing for SiberMate simulated phishing emails in Google Workspace.
- Log in to https://admin.google.com
- Navigate to Apps -> Google Workspace -> Gmail
- Scroll down to the bottom of the Gmail settings page and click Spam, Phishing and Malware
- Scroll down to the third option down Inbound gateway
- Add the SiberMate IP addresses to the Gateway IPs list:
198.21.6.191 168.245.56.242 99.80.168.14
- Ensure that the Reject all mail not from gateway IPs setting is unchecked
- Check the Require TLS for connections from the email gateways listed above setting
- Under Message Tagging, ensure Message is considered spam if the following header regexp matches is checked
- In the Regexp field, enter text that is unlikely to be found in a simulated phishing email, for example:
ksdhqloqwklcpsshovpsnlx
- Check the Disable Gmail spam evaluation on mail from this gateway; only use header value setting
- Click Save
This is what the window should look like:
Your simulated phishing and security awareness training emails should now all be delivered successfully to your users, without warning banners popping up. We suggest you send a test simulated phishing email to your address first to ensure all the settings have been applied correctly!
