Step 1: Download the PhishArm Manifest

  1. Navigate: PhishArm → Settings → Outlook Plugin

  2. Click Download → you will see the manifest file (XML).

    • Copy the manifest URL.
      ⚠️ Important: The manifest URL expires in 60 seconds. If it fails, refresh the page and grab a new link.

Step 2: Deploy Plugin via Exchange PowerShell

Log in to your on-prem Exchange Management Shell and run one of the following commands:

  • For all users in your organization:

    New-App -OrganizationApp -Url <ManifestURL> -ProvidedTo Everyone -DefaultStateForUser Enabled 
  • For only specific users:

    New-App -OrganizationApp -Url <ManifestURL> -ProvidedTo SpecificUsers -DefaultStateForUser Enabled -UserList [email protected],[email protected] 

Step 3. Allow Delegated Permissions

  • After app deployment, grant delegated permissions by logging into the MS Admin link.

  • Click Accept when prompted.

  • This step ensures the add-in can function properly for end users.

Step 4: Whitelist the Plugin Domain

If your organization uses firewalls, proxies, or Zero Trust tools, allow the following domain:

https://outlook-plugin.right-hand.ai 

This ensures Outlook can communicate with the PhishArm service.

Step 5: Verify Installation

  1. Wait for deployment to complete.

  2. Ask a user to restart Outlook.

  3. Open any email → check the ribbon or add-ins menu.

  4. You should see the PhishArm button.

Step 6: Reporting Suspicious Emails

  1. Select any email in Outlook.

  2. Click PhishArm → Report.

  3. The email will be securely sent to the Right-Hand Dashboard.

  4. Users will see a confirmation message.
