Qs & As
Why not use goPhish?
goPhish is a gerat choice too. But I prefer flexibility and simplicity at the same time. I used goPhish various times but at somepoint, I’m either find it overwhelming or inflexible.
Most of the time, I don’t need all these statistics, I just need a flixable way to prepare my phishing campaigns and send them. Each time I use goPhish I’ve to go and check the documentations about how to add a website, forward specific requests, etc. So I created goCabrito and getCabrito.
getCabrito optionally generates unique URL for email tracking.
- Email Opening tracking: Tracking Pixel
- Email Clicking tracking
by generate a hash for each email and append it to the end of the URL or image URL and store these information along with other things that are useful for getCabrito to import and servering. This feature is the only thing connects goCabrito with getCabrito script, so no panic!.
What’s with the “Cabrito” thing?
It’s just a name of once of my favorit resturants and the name was chosen by one of my team.
