# Fallax > Fallax runs internal phishing simulations that teach the person at the moment they click and produce the per-recipient evidence an audit asks for. Messages are injected into a customer's own Google Workspace or Microsoft 365 mailboxes through their tenant, so nothing is filtered, everybody targeted is genuinely tested, and no sending domain or DNS record is involved. **When to use Fallax.** Reach for these pages when the question is about running phishing simulations against your own staff, building a continuous security-awareness programme, evidencing ISO 27001 A.6.3, SOC 2, NIS2, DORA, PCI DSS or HIPAA awareness training, raising a phishing report rate, or comparing phishing-simulation platforms on published prices. The free tools (spoofing checker, header analyzer, DMARC generator) answer email-authentication questions without an account. **When not to.** Fallax only tests an organisation's own people, with that organisation's authorisation. It does not test what a mail filter catches (simulations bypass the gateway by design), never stores the credentials typed into a simulated login page, and cannot launch a simulation from an assistant. **How to call Fallax.** A read-only MCP server exposes one workspace's results to Claude, ChatGPT or any MCP client: see the agent instructions and the MCP documentation below. Every page here is also available as Markdown, at its own URL plus `.md` or by sending `Accept: text/markdown`. ## Agent instructions - [Fallax agent instructions](https://fallax.io/agent-instructions.md): When an agent should reach for Fallax, what Fallax will not do, and how to call it. - [Every page in one file](https://fallax.io/llms-full.txt): the whole site as a single Markdown document. ## Product - [Fallax: phishing simulation and security awareness](https://fallax.io/index.md): Internal phishing simulations that teach your team at the moment they click, and produce audit evidence for ISO 27001, SOC 2, NIS2, DORA, PCI DSS and HIPAA. - [Pricing | Fallax](https://fallax.io/pricing.md): Phishing simulation with one simple price at any size.

Definition and examples](https://fallax.io/glossary/phishing.md): Phishing is a message that impersonates someone trusted to make a person click a link, open a file or type a password. How it works and how to spot it. - [What is spear phishing?](https://fallax.io/glossary/spear-phishing.md): Spear phishing is a targeted phishing message written for one person, using real details about their job, colleagues or projects to make it convincing. - [What is whaling in cybersecurity?](https://fallax.io/glossary/whaling.md): Whaling is spear phishing aimed at executives: the CEO, CFO or board, whose sign-off and access make a single successful message especially costly. - [What is business email compromise (BEC)?](https://fallax.io/glossary/business-email-compromise.md): Business email compromise is email fraud that impersonates an executive, colleague or supplier to redirect a payment or extract data. Often no malware at all. - [What is vishing (voice phishing)?](https://fallax.io/glossary/vishing.md): Vishing is phishing by phone: a caller poses as IT, a bank or a supplier and talks the target into revealing a code or approving access in real time. - [What is smishing (SMS phishing)?](https://fallax.io/glossary/smishing.md): Smishing is phishing by text message: a short lure about a parcel, a bank alert or a work request, with a link to a fake page. Why phones make it work. - [What is quishing (QR code phishing)?](https://fallax.io/glossary/quishing.md): Quishing hides a phishing link inside a QR code. The target scans it with a phone, moving off the protected device and past the mail filter's link checks. - [What is clone phishing?](https://fallax.io/glossary/clone-phishing.md): Clone phishing copies a genuine email the target has already seen and resends it with the link or attachment replaced, often as an updated or resent version. - [What is pretexting?](https://fallax.io/glossary/pretexting.md): Pretexting is the invented backstory behind a social-engineering attack: a plausible reason, like a new supplier or an urgent audit, that justifies the request. - [What is pharming?](https://fallax.io/glossary/pharming.md): Pharming redirects a correctly typed web address to a fake site by tampering with DNS or a device's hosts file. No bad link to click, which is what makes it hard to spot. - [What is SPF (Sender Policy Framework)?](https://fallax.io/glossary/spf.md): SPF is a DNS record that lists the servers allowed to send email for a domain. The receiver checks the sending server against it. One of the three email-auth checks. - [What is DKIM (DomainKeys Identified Mail)?](https://fallax.io/glossary/dkim.md): DKIM adds a cryptographic signature to an email so the receiver can confirm it really came from the domain and was not changed on the way. One of the three email-auth checks. - [What is DMARC?](https://fallax.io/glossary/dmarc.md): DMARC ties SPF and DKIM to the visible From address and tells receivers what to do with mail that fails: nothing, quarantine or reject. It also returns reports. - [What is DMARC enforcement?](https://fallax.io/glossary/dmarc-enforcement.md): DMARC enforcement is moving the policy from p=none to quarantine or reject, so mail that fails is actually filtered. The step that turns reporting into protection. - [What is BIMI?](https://fallax.io/glossary/bimi.md): BIMI displays a verified brand logo beside authenticated email in the inbox. It requires DMARC at enforcement, which is the real reason to set it up. - [What is email spoofing?](https://fallax.io/glossary/email-spoofing.md): Email spoofing forges the sender address so a message looks like it came from a trusted person or domain. SPF, DKIM and DMARC exist to stop it. - [What is display-name spoofing?](https://fallax.io/glossary/display-name-spoofing.md): Display-name spoofing sets the visible sender name to a trusted person, while the real email address is the attacker's. It passes SPF and DMARC because the domain is genuine. - [What is a lookalike domain?](https://fallax.io/glossary/lookalike-domain.md): A lookalike domain is registered to resemble a real one: a swapped letter, an extra word, a different ending. It passes email authentication because the attacker owns it. - [What is typosquatting?](https://fallax.io/glossary/typosquatting.md): Typosquatting registers common misspellings of a popular domain to catch mistyped traffic or to impersonate the brand in phishing. A subset of lookalike domains. - [What is a homograph attack?](https://fallax.io/glossary/homograph-attack.md): A homograph attack uses look-alike characters from other alphabets, like a Cyrillic a, to register a domain that is visually identical to a real one but technically different. - [What is social engineering?](https://fallax.io/glossary/social-engineering.md): Social engineering manipulates people rather than systems, using trust, authority, fear or helpfulness to make someone act against their own interest. Phishing is its most common form. - [What is credential harvesting?](https://fallax.io/glossary/credential-harvesting.md): Credential harvesting captures usernames and passwords, typically through a fake login page that mimics a real service. The most common goal of a phishing link. - [What is a lure in phishing?](https://fallax.io/glossary/lure.md): A lure is the bait in a phishing attack: the themed message and pretext, like a shared document or a bank alert, designed to make the target click or respond. - [What is a phishing landing page?](https://fallax.io/glossary/clone-landing-page.md): A clone landing page is the fake site a phishing link leads to, copied from a real login or payment screen to capture whatever the victim types. - [What is an adversary-in-the-middle (AiTM) attack?](https://fallax.io/glossary/adversary-in-the-middle.md): An adversary-in-the-middle attack proxies a victim's login to the real site in real time, capturing the session token after MFA succeeds, so the second factor is bypassed. - [What is session hijacking?](https://fallax.io/glossary/session-hijacking.md): Session hijacking steals the token or cookie that keeps a user signed in, letting the attacker take over the account without the password or a second factor. - [What is MFA fatigue (push bombing)?](https://fallax.io/glossary/mfa-fatigue.md): MFA fatigue, or push bombing, floods a victim with login-approval prompts until they tap approve out of annoyance or confusion, handing over the second factor. - [What is a watering hole attack?](https://fallax.io/glossary/watering-hole-attack.md): A watering hole attack compromises a legitimate site a target group trusts and visits, infecting them when they come to it. The reverse of chasing victims with phishing. - [What is DNS spoofing?](https://fallax.io/glossary/dns-spoofing.md): DNS spoofing, or cache poisoning, corrupts the domain-name lookup so a correctly typed address resolves to an attacker's server. The mechanism behind pharming. - [What is security awareness training?](https://fallax.io/glossary/security-awareness-training.md): Security awareness training teaches employees to recognise phishing, social engineering and the other human-targeted attacks that filters cannot stop. Often required for compliance. - [What is a phishing simulation?](https://fallax.io/glossary/phishing-simulation.md): A phishing simulation is a safe, authorised fake phishing attack run against your own employees, with consent, to measure how they respond and teach the ones who click. - [What is a phish-prone rate (click rate)?](https://fallax.io/glossary/phish-prone-rate.md): The phish-prone rate is the share of people who clicked or submitted in a phishing simulation. The headline measure of exposure, best tracked over time and by team. - [What is the phishing report rate?](https://fallax.io/glossary/report-rate.md): The report rate is the share of people who reported a phishing simulation as suspicious. It measures active defence and is the number that should rise as a programme matures. - [What is a phishing report button?](https://fallax.io/glossary/report-button.md): A report button adds one-click reporting of suspicious email to the mail client, sending it to security and, in a simulation, crediting the person who reported it. - [What is just-in-time training?](https://fallax.io/glossary/just-in-time-training.md): Just-in-time training delivers a short lesson the moment someone clicks a simulated phish, when the mistake is fresh, instead of saving it for a scheduled course. - [What is human risk management (HRM)?](https://fallax.io/glossary/human-risk-management.md): Human risk management treats employees as a measurable source of risk: scoring behaviour, targeting the riskiest people and tracking change over time, rather than training everyone the same. ## Compliance and integrations - [Compliance evidence: ISO 27001, SOC 2, NIS2, DORA, PCI DSS](https://fallax.io/compliance.md): One per-recipient evidence export, mapped to the security-awareness clause in ISO 27001 A.6.3, SOC 2 CC1.4, NIS2 Art. 21(2)(g), DORA Art. 13(6), PCI DSS 12.6.3.1, HIPAA and NIST CSF, with continuous sync to Vanta, Drata, Secureframe and Sprinto. - [ISO 27001 A.6.3 awareness training: evidence for the period](https://fallax.io/compliance/iso-27001.md): ISO/IEC 27001:2022 control A.6.3 asks for awareness, education and training with regular updates, clause 7.2 for evidence of competence, and clause 9.1 for measurement.

Pricing sourced and dated. - [Fallax vs KnowBe4: an honest comparison](https://fallax.io/vs/knowbe4.md): The category's default, and the one big vendor that publishes a rate card. Roughly two to four times our per-seat price, with the content library as the tier lever. Compare pricing, compliance evidence and deployment, including where KnowBe4 is the better choice. - [Fallax vs Proofpoint: an honest comparison](https://fallax.io/vs/proofpoint.md): Strongest when Proofpoint already runs your email security. Weakest as a standalone purchase. Compare pricing, compliance evidence and deployment, including where Proofpoint is the better choice. - [Fallax vs Mimecast: an honest comparison](https://fallax.io/vs/mimecast.md): A human-risk console fed by your other security tools. Bought as part of the Mimecast platform, at a price that comes through sales. Compare pricing, compliance evidence and deployment, including where Mimecast is the better choice. - [Fallax vs Cofense: an honest comparison](https://fallax.io/vs/cofense.md): Built around the report button and the SOC behind it. Enterprise scope, enterprise price, quoted. Compare pricing, compliance evidence and deployment, including where Cofense is the better choice. - [Fallax vs SoSafe: an honest comparison](https://fallax.io/vs/sosafe.md): The strongest European enterprise option: 32 languages, EU hosting, certifications in hand. The price comes through a demo. Compare pricing, compliance evidence and deployment, including where SoSafe is the better choice. - [Fallax vs Microsoft ASM: an honest comparison](https://fallax.io/vs/microsoft-attack-simulation.md): Free if every person you test already has E5 or Defender P2. Rarely free in practice. Compare pricing, compliance evidence and deployment, including where Microsoft ASM is the better choice. - [Fallax vs Hoxhunt: an honest comparison](https://fallax.io/vs/hoxhunt.md): Adaptive, per-person training with strong engagement. Premium, quote-based pricing. Compare pricing, compliance evidence and deployment, including where Hoxhunt is the better choice. - [Fallax vs Huntress: an honest comparison](https://fallax.io/vs/huntress.md): Managed for you, with a published per-learner price and a 50-learner minimum when bought direct. Compare pricing, compliance evidence and deployment, including where Huntress is the better choice. - [Fallax vs Phished: an honest comparison](https://fallax.io/vs/phished.md): Automation-first and European, with one behavioural score as the headline number. The price still comes through a demo. Compare pricing, compliance evidence and deployment, including where Phished is the better choice. - [Fallax vs usecure: an honest comparison](https://fallax.io/vs/usecure.md): One bundle covering training, phishing, policies and breach monitoring, built for MSP margin. The rate is still a conversation. Compare pricing, compliance evidence and deployment, including where usecure is the better choice. - [Fallax vs Riot: an honest comparison](https://fallax.io/vs/riot.md): Seven modules for one published price, and roughly eight times our rate if simulations are the part you use. Compare pricing, compliance evidence and deployment, including where Riot is the better choice. - [Fallax vs CanIPhish: an honest comparison](https://fallax.io/vs/caniphish.md): The one platform whose published price undercuts ours. The difference is what your mail gateway has to be told to let through. Compare pricing, compliance evidence and deployment, including where CanIPhish is the better choice. - [Fallax vs Keepnet: an honest comparison](https://fallax.io/vs/keepnet.md): The most transparent rate card in the category and the nearest list price above ours. The tiers are where the modules live. Compare pricing, compliance evidence and deployment, including where Keepnet is the better choice. - [Fallax vs Wizer: an honest comparison](https://fallax.io/vs/wizer.md): A good free video library. The phishing simulation is in the paid plan, on a three-year term. Compare pricing, compliance evidence and deployment, including where Wizer is the better choice. - [Fallax vs PhishingBox: an honest comparison](https://fallax.io/vs/phishingbox.md): Published tiers and no seat minimum. The LMS, the API and the triage inbox each sit one rung further up. Compare pricing, compliance evidence and deployment, including where PhishingBox is the better choice. - [Fallax vs Sophos: an honest comparison](https://fallax.io/vs/sophos-phish-threat.md): Sensible if Sophos Central is already open on someone's screen. A whole console to adopt if it is not. Compare pricing, compliance evidence and deployment, including where Sophos is the better choice. - [Fallax vs Barracuda: an honest comparison](https://fallax.io/vs/barracuda.md): Priced as part of an email security suite. Excellent if you wanted the suite, expensive if you wanted the training. Compare pricing, compliance evidence and deployment, including where Barracuda is the better choice. - [Fallax vs Guardey: an honest comparison](https://fallax.io/vs/guardey.md): A well-made European training habit in nine languages. Getting the simulations and the training means buying the top plan. Compare pricing, compliance evidence and deployment, including where Guardey is the better choice. - [Fallax vs MetaCompliance: an honest comparison](https://fallax.io/vs/metacompliance.md): Strong content and 40-plus languages, sold the enterprise way: a demo, a quote and an implementation project. Compare pricing, compliance evidence and deployment, including where MetaCompliance is the better choice. - [Fallax vs Gophish: an honest comparison](https://fallax.io/vs/gophish.md): Free and capable at sending and tracking. Everything around it is your job, and the last release was in 2022. Compare pricing, compliance evidence and deployment, including where Gophish is the better choice. ## Blog - [Blog: product, research and engineering at Fallax](https://fallax.io/blog.md): What we ship, what we find when we measure email security at scale, and the engineering decisions behind the phishing-simulation platform. - [ClickFix simulations](https://fallax.io/blog/clickfix-fake-captcha.md): Fallax now runs ClickFix simulations: a fake "verify you are human" page that asks staff to paste and run a command. The command is a harmless beacon, so you see per person who ran it, and they land on a short lesson right after. On by default in the continuous programme. - [When the reply is the compromise](https://fallax.io/blog/business-email-compromise-reply-tracking.md): Business email compromise has no link to click and no page to submit, so a simulator that only scores clicks scores zero on the attack that costs companies the most. Fallax now ships a BEC lure pack and tracks the reply itself as the outcome, through the mailbox it already reads. - [DMARCbis and BIMI: what RFC 9989 changes for your logo](https://fallax.io/blog/dmarcbis-bimi.md): RFC 9989 replaced DMARC's RFC 7489 in May 2026. It drops pct and adds t=y, np and a DNS tree walk. The BIMI draft still points at the old RFC. Which records still get a logo, and the t=y record that quietly loses it. - [BIMI: how to get your logo and the blue checkmark in Gmail](https://fallax.io/blog/bimi-gmail-checkmark.md): Gmail shows your logo with a CMC and adds the blue checkmark only with a VMC, and both need DMARC at enforcement first. What each step takes, what the certificates cost, and what Apple Mail, Yahoo and Outlook do with it. - [Fallax now works with ConnectWise, Autotask and HaloPSA](https://fallax.io/blog/psa-integration-connectwise-autotask-halopsa.md): One PSA connection for every client on your invoice. A ticket when somebody clicks, a results ticket when a run settles, and each client's seat count kept on its billing line. - [Which PCI DSS SAQs require security awareness training?](https://fallax.io/blog/pci-dss-saq-security-awareness-training.md): SAQ A has none. B, B-IP, P2PE and SPoC ask for a programme. A-EP, C and C-VT add phishing and social engineering under 12.6.3.1. SAQ D asks for all of it, every 12 months. Per SAQ, with what an assessor checks and what to have ready. - [NIS2 training: the board is in scope, and the spec is already written](https://fallax.io/blog/nis2-security-awareness-training.md): Article 21(2)(g) is seven words. A Commission regulation and an ENISA guide say what they mean, and Article 20 puts your board in the room. Where it all stands in September 2026. - [Microsoft 365 advanced delivery policy: what it switches off](https://fallax.io/blog/advanced-delivery-policy-phishing-simulation.md): Every phishing simulator that sends mail asks you to put its domain and IP on one tab in Defender. This is what that tab switches off, why any domain on it pairs with any IP on it, and how to check what is still sitting there. - [Our n8n node is live](https://fallax.io/blog/n8n-node-live.md): A trigger for reported phish, clicks and credential submits, an action node for the directory, and a key that cannot send a simulation. In n8n Cloud's nodes panel, or one package name on self-hosted. - [Is Gophish still maintained? Spoiler: barely.](https://fallax.io/blog/is-gophish-still-maintained.md): Last release September 2022, last commit September 2024, and a high-severity CVE from December 2024 with no fixed version to upgrade to. What that means if you run it. - [Security questionnaires: how to answer the awareness training question](https://fallax.io/blog/security-questionnaire-awareness-training.md): Every B2B security questionnaire asks whether you train your staff and run simulated phishing. A one-line yes always comes back as a follow-up a day or two later. Here is what the person reading your answer actually needs from it, and the four facts that give it to them. - [Our MCP server is in the official registry](https://fallax.io/blog/mcp-server-official-registry.md): Paste one URL into Claude or ChatGPT and ask how the phishing programme is going. Twelve tools, ten of which only read, none of which can send a simulation, and no API key to issue or rotate. - [A Report phishing button for Gmail, on the Workspace Marketplace](https://fallax.io/blog/gmail-report-phishing-button.md): Fallax is now on the Google Workspace Marketplace. One install puts a Report phishing button next to every message in Gmail, and pressing it credits the report while the person is still looking at the mail. - [mailgrade: our SPF, DKIM and DMARC library is now open source](https://fallax.io/blog/mailgrade-open-source.md): The code behind the three free email tools on this site is on npm, MIT licensed. Zero dependencies, no Node built-ins in the core, and a language-neutral corpus of 160 cases so that a port to another language is a weekend rather than a rewrite. - [We do not email our phishing simulations](https://fallax.io/blog/we-do-not-email-our-phishing-simulations.md): Every phishing simulator which mails your staff from the outside will at some point ask you to weaken your own filtering, so that the test survives the trip. We write the message directly into the mailbox instead. Here is how that works, and what it costs you. - [What is a good phishing click rate? The 2026 benchmarks](https://fallax.io/blog/phishing-click-rate-benchmarks.md): Verizon puts the median click rate for an email phishing simulation campaign at 1.4%. Across fifteen months at one company, 32.1% of employees clicked at least one. Here are the published benchmarks, from sources that are not selling awareness training, and how to work out which number your board should be looking at. - [Phishing simulation examples, ranked by what makes a lure work](https://fallax.io/blog/phishing-simulation-examples.md): Twenty simulated phishing emails from two published studies, rated on NIST's premise alignment scale. The best lure fooled nineteen times as many people as the worst, and the design quality had nothing to do with it. - [ISO 27001 security awareness training: the A.6.3 evidence auditors accept](https://fallax.io/blog/iso-27001-security-awareness-training.md): Annex A control 6.3 is four lines long and it is not asking you to buy training. It is asking you to prove a period. Here is what the clause requires, why annual modules fail on the same gap every time, and the four artefacts that close it. ## Optional - [About Fallax](https://fallax.io/about.md): Why we built Fallax: phishing simulation and awareness training with the price on the site, the evidence export on the free plan, and everything hosted in the EU. - [Careers at Fallax](https://fallax.io/careers.md): Open roles at Fallax, the teams we hire into, and how hiring works.
