Breaking Out of the Browser to Defend Against Phishing Attacks
Overview Current approaches to phishing prevention are focused on the web browser and the user's interaction with it. The paper presents a new approach to allowing users to interact reliably and securely with high-value and sensitive web sites, using protected links - a user-customizable set of secure bookmarks that not only identify but also authenticate their targets. By combining visually distinctive display to prevent spoofing, digitally signing these bookmarks to protect them from tampering, and whitelisting of allowed bookmark providers to ensure correctness, it is ensured that users end up with an intuitive interface for accessing the sites they intend.
