Landing pages in Attack simulation training

In Attack simulation training in Microsoft 365 E5 or Microsoft Defender for Office 365 Plan 2, landing pages are the web pages that users are taken to if they open the payload in the simulation.

For getting started information about Attack simulation training, see Get started using Attack simulation training.

To see the available landing pages, open the Microsoft Defender portal at https://security.microsoft.com, go to Email & collaboration > Attack simulation training > Content library tab > and then select Phish landing pages. To go directly to the Content library tab where you can select Phish landing pages, use https://security.microsoft.com/attacksimulator?viewid=contentlibrary.

Phish landing pages in the Content library tab has two tabs:

  • Global landing pages tab: Contains built-in, unmodifiable landing page templates named Microsoft Landing Page Template 1 to Microsoft Landing Page Template 5. These built-in landing pages are localized into 12+ languages.
  • Tenant landing pages tab: Contains custom landing pages that you created.

The following information is shown for each landing page. You can sort the landing pages by clicking on an available column header. Select Customize columns to change the columns that are shown. By default, all available columns are selected.

  • Name
  • (Actions control): Take action on the landing page. The available actions depend on the Status value of the landing page as described in the procedure sections.
  • Language: One or more of the following values: German, English, Spanish, French, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Dutch, Portuguese, Russian, Chinese (Simplified), and Chinese (Traditional, Taiwan).
  • Default language

  • Narrow the width of appropriate columns.
