Run Phishing Simulations for $37/Month Instead of $30,000/Year
The Tool: GoPhish ## What We Added ## Quick Start (Azure) ## Cost Comparison Most enterprise phishing simulation tools charge $3-5 per user per year. For a 10,000 person company, that's $30,000-50,000 annually. We run unlimited simulations on a $37/month Azure VM. GoPhish is an open-source phishing simulation framework. It's been around for 10+ years, has 10,000+ installations, and is MIT licensed. I've supported it for the last 8 years or so, since early 2018, maintaining the core repo and answering issues as they've popped up. The problem? Vanilla GoPhish lacks enterprise basics: no MFA, no encryption at rest, no audit logging. We forked GoPhish and added what production environments actually need: The setup script handles systemd services, TLS certificates, and Ubuntu hardening. Same capabilities. Fraction of the cost.
