Abstract

Many users lack the experience or knowledge to notice when a phishing email lands in their inbox. This is where Phishing Simulator comes into play. Most other Phishing Simulators have the goal of teaching via a fake phishing attack on a user. We wanted to do something different and more memorable. For this reason, in our application, the user gets to be the phisher instead of the Phished. This was created using a combination of C+, HTML, CSS, and SQL, all housed on razor. The user will be given information on a simulated user and prompted to create a phishing email that will be scored based on the following criteria. They are scored based on the email address they send it to, the email address they use, and buzz words included in the message that is sent. This is meant to teach users what to look for in attacks
