Towards detecting phishing web contents for secure internet surfing

Now a days, a significant web based crisis are causing internet users to be attracted to visit the fake websites and thus being mistreated into providing with their confidential information to some malicious systems run by some malevolent parties. This type of fraud technique is defined as phishing. The resulted damage is ranged from denial of e-mail access to plenty of monetary losses. It has harmful impacts on e-commerce and online-banking badly. Phishing has become most popular practice among the web criminals and such attacks are becoming very much sophisticated and frequently on the rise as newer means and attacking vectors are adopted. Traditional anti-phishing tools try to mitigate the attacks partially. Most of the tools are focused on protecting users. This paper proposes a novel phishing detection approach by considering some attributes that are exploited to conduct attacks. The proposed method works both online and offline mode in a faster way reducing time and space overhead in comparison to existing dominant approaches.
