Identification of Phishing Web Pages and Target Detection

Phishing attacks involve the imitation of web pages of legitimate organization in order to steal user identities. While there is urgent need to stop this kind of identity theft, current phishing methods are neither complete nor appropriately responsive. In proposed method, we first identify whether the given web page is phishing or not based on a large set of heuristic extracted from related work and if that web page is found to be phishing, we detect the most probable phishing target of that web page using Google Search API.
