description: Automates GoPhish phishing simulation campaigns using the Python gophish
  library, creating email templates with tracking pixels, configuring SMTP sending
  profiles, building target groups from CSV, launching campaigns, and analyzing results
  such as open rates, click rates, and credential submission statistics. Use when
  running an authorized phishing simulation or security awareness assessment via GoPhish.

When to Use

• When conducting security assessments that involve performing red team phishing with gophish
• When following incident response procedures for related security events
• When performing scheduled security testing or auditing activities
• When validating security controls through hands-on testing

Prerequisites

• Familiarity with security operations concepts and tools
• Access to a test or lab environment for safe execution
• Python 3.8+ with required dependencies installed
• Appropriate authorization for any testing activities

Instructions

1. Install dependencies: pip install gophish requests
2. Deploy GoPhish server and obtain an API key from Settings.
3. Use the Python gophish library to automate campaign setup:
   • Create email templates with HTML body and tracking
   • Configure SMTP sending profiles
   • Import target groups from CSV
   • Create landing pages for credential capture
   • Launch and monitor campaigns
4. Analyze campaign results: opens, clicks, submitted data, reported.

# For authorized penetration testing and lab environments only
python scripts/agent.py --gophish-url https://localhost:3333 --api-key <key> --campaign-name "Q1 Awareness" --output phishing_report.json

Examples

Create Campaign via API

from gophish import Gophish
from gophish.models import Campaign, Template, Group, SMTP, Page
api = Gophish("api_key", host="https://localhost:3333", verify=False)  # Self-signed cert on localhost lab
campaign = Campaign(name="Q1 Test", groups=[Group(name="Sales Team")],
    template=Template(name="IT Password Reset"), smtp=SMTP(name="Internal SMTP"),
    page=Page(name="Credential Page"))
api.campaigns.post(campaign)
