About Phishing :
Phishing is the process of hacking user’s security
information like bank accounts, credit card
numbers …etc. In this process users will receive
emails with hyperlinks with information like it is
sent from banks and when user clicks on links
users will be routed to a unknown website
which ask for bank account details like
password changes, credit card details.
EXISTING SYSTEM:
Blacklist-based technique with
low false alarm probability, but it cannot detect
the websites that are not in the black list
database.
Because the life cycle of phishing
websites is too short and the establishment of
black list has a long lag time, the accuracy of
blacklist is not too high.
PROPOSAL SYSTEM:
In this project is to implement
a anti phishing algorithm called as link guard
algorithm which works on character based so it
can detect known phishing attacks which are in
black list and also unknown ones which are not in
black list . And then these phishing attacks are
added to black list.
MODULE 2
The module 2 enables the user to
compose and send a mail. It also allows the
user to read a received mail. Once a mail is
sent the date and the subject of the mail gets
displayed. The received mail can be checked if
it is phishing or not , the implementation of
which is given in the next module. The
compose mail option contains an option for
spoof id.
MODULE 3
The module contains the
implementation of the Link Guard algorithm. It is
possible for the user to add domain names and
categorize them as either white list or black list
under settings. Whenever a mail is detected as
phishing the domain name in that mail
automatically gets added as black list. The Link
Guard algorithm checks if the domain names
fall under any of the 5 categories of hyperlinks
for phishing emails.
It also refers to the database of black and
white list entries and sets the status of the mail
as either Phishing or Non-Phishing. Once the
mail is categorized as Phishing the user can
take care that he does not open the link or
submit any personal, critical information on to
the website.
