2. Allow Hoxhunt through proxies, VPNs, firewalls, and link scanners
Reason for implementation
Ensures that Hoxhunt's Google Workspace add-on is able to open the pop-up window where users can receive optional Instant Feedback, or go through the micro training after successfully reporting a Hoxhunt training email.
Ensures that the user can fail a Hoxhunt training email by clicking on a link included in the email, which will open a pop-up window where the employee can go through the micro training.
