King Phisher Description
As we are sure you know, the Internet is not without its own set of more or less known security threats. One of the most common fraudulent practices on the Internet is the act of ‘Phishing’. In a few words, phishing is a deceptive scam that is meant to acquire sensitive information for you, such as usernames, passwords, credit card details and even money in certain cases.
Since prevention is almost always better than actually having to repair or fix something, probably one of the best ways you can stay safe is by simulating real-world phishing attacks. This said, King Phisher is a complex piece of software designed from the ground up to improve user awareness against phishing attacks.

It comes with a well-structured main window and thanks to a clear-cut interface, working with this utility is quite straightforward.
You can start running simple campaigns against phishing attacks or even complicated scenarios by firstly filling in the required information in the Configuration tab. You can also edit the HTML structure of your campaign, preview it in real time and get accurate details about the messages, visits and credentials.
Useful set of features for simulating phishing attacks
You should also be aware of the fact that King Phisher enables you to run multiple phishing campaigns simultaneously, to send emails with images (for a more credible appearance) or with calendar invitation and to even clone web pages. Credential harvesting from pages capabilities, support for SMS alerts regarding the campaign’s status and support for geolocation of phishing visitors, as well as more complicated two-factor authentication, are also part of King Phisher’s feature list.
What is more, the app makes it possible for you to both import and export campaigns to CSV, Excel and XML formats.
Run multiple, separate anti-phishing campaigns with the least amount of effort
