Checking process for anti-phishing / Hamam Haris Zoolkefli

Phishing is a process of sending a false email to the randomly selected victims or user whereby it will ask the user to click on the link given which is it will redirecting the victim to the fake website. There, the victim will be needed to give their confidential information such as bank account number and password. In order to avoid this from happen, an anti-phishing is needed. Checking is a process whereby it will check the URL receives whether it is match the existing phishing URL that has been stored in the database. This checking method is important because it will save time whereby it will reduce the time taken for doing the detection phase which is in this checking method it will check the incoming URL whether it is same or not in the blacklist data entry. If it is similar it will skip the detection process and pass the result to the user. While if it is not similar with the blacklist data entry, the URL is passed to the detection process so that it can identify the URL whether it is phishing or not. In order to complete this project, the PHP language and MySQL database are needed. This project is developed at the server so that can avoid the process from being crash. This is because from the research that we have done, many anti-phishing before this implemented at the browser and have the higher probability to crash. As a result, we hope our project can help the user from being fraud by the hacker or phisher.
