Copy a Website

Real phishing content often attempts to copy the appearance of a legitimate web page, and you may want to do the same with your simulated attacks. To assist with this, attack templates have a copy feature for quickly inserting existing web content into your template.
Navigate to Attack Templates -> Edit Template -> Landing Page Template
This feature works best with a blank template.
Since we are copying a whole webpage, starting with a blank template is best.
Make a copy of one of the blank templates:
Now select the copy and make the necessary changes to the template details like name, description, languages, etc. When you're ready go to the Landing Page Template for the next steps.
In this example we'll be copying the Lucy login page:
Switch the Language field to your desired language, then select Copy Webpage.
Fill out the details of your target web page, select index.html
as the file, and click Start when ready.
Once the copy is finished you can return to the template editor to see your content loaded in to the file.
You can also click Preview to check the appearance in your browser.
To copy a webpage to a new file follow the same steps as above and select New File instead of index.html
. Let's copy the password reset page to go along with our login page.
Since we're copying these pages from their source, links and other elements on the page still point to the real URLs from the website we copied. For example, the Forgot Password? button will still take the user to the real password recovery page. These links need to be adjusted to work with your template.
If you are linking to another page in your template, simply use the filename as the URL:
Similarly, the login form will need to be adjusted to work with a Lucy simulation by setting the form action to ?login
. Be sure to create a file named account.html
with a simple error message or other content for the user.
Since this is an attack template it makes sense to just set every link to the %link%
variable.
