Attack Simulator - Randomize Send Times

Hi,

 

I've read this article: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/security-compliance-and-identity/announcing-exciting-updates-to-attack-simulation-training/ba-p/2455961


I'm now preparing one simulation, and there's still one question which is not clear for me.
I want to randomize the sending times, to avoid the "crowd" effect of everyone receiving at the same time. But if I define the start date as 1 of October for example and end date for 15 of October, how will the randomization of email sending happen?
Usually I leave the campaigns on a 15 days timeframe, to give enough time to any user which is on vacation for a week for example. But if the randomization occurs between the start date and end date, that may mean that some users will receive the email near the last days?


Thanks

    Did you start your simulation? Have you been able to randomize the sending times to avoid the crowd effect?

     

    It would help me because I have the same question as you had.

     

    Thanks

    Best Regards,

      Hi,

      Yes, if you choose your option to randomize, it will randomize over the time you've choosen.
