Abstract:

With the increase of requesting personal information online, unauthorized disclosure of user privacy is a significant problem faced by todayâ s Internet. As a typical identity theft, phishing usually employs fraudulent emails and spoofed web sites to trick unsuspecting users into divulging their private information. Even legitimate web sites may collect private information from unsophisticated users such as children for commercial purposes without their parentsâ consent. The Childrenâ s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) of 1998 was enacted in reaction to the widespread collection of in

Abstract:

Valuable information, such as user authentication credentials and personal sensitive information, can be obtained by exploiting vulnerabilities within the user’s understanding of a system, and particularly a lack of understanding of the user interface. As the barrier to exploiting system vulnerabilities has increased signiﬁcantly with time, attacking users has rapidly become a more efﬁcient and effective alternative. To protect users from phishing attacks system designers and security professionals need to understand how users interact with those attacks. In this thesis I present an improved u

Context. Phishing emails is a type of computer attack targeting users and tries to trick them into giving out personal information, follow shady links or download malicious attachments. Phishing is often closely linked to ransomware, which is a type of attack that locks a users computer and asks for a ransom in order to give access back. Ransomware viruses often contaminate a computer through a phishing email. Hospitals are a growing target for these types of attacks because of their need of being able to access their system at all times. Objectives. This study intends to research the phishing

In “phishing attacks”, phishing websites mimic trustworthy websites in order to steal sensitive information from end-users. Despite research by both academia and the industry focusing on development of anti-phishing detection techniques, phishing has increasingly become an online threat. Our inability to slow down phishing attacks shows that we need to go beyond detection and focus more on understanding the phishing ecosystem. In this thesis, we contribute in three ways to understand the phishing ecosystem and to offer insight for future anti-phishing efforts. First, we provide a new and co

Phishing is an act of fraudulence to lure victims to respond to an illegitimate request for the sake of a financial or informational gain (Huang, Qian, and Wang, 2012). Phishing can jeopardize the security of online learning (e-Learning) systems. Phishing cannot be prevented by depending on technical controls alone (Proctor, Schultz and Vu, 2009). Effective Information Security Awareness is key to protecting against Phishing (Chen, Shaw and Yang, 2006).

The Internet has been plagued with endless spam for over 15 years. However, in the last five years spam has morphed from an annoying advertising tool to a social engineering attack vector. Much of today's unwanted email tries to deceive users into replying with passwords, bank account information, or to visit malicious sites which steal login credentials and spread malware. These email-based attacks are known as phishing attacks. Much has been published about these attacks which try to appear real not only to users and subsequently, spam filters.

Phishing involves sending e-mails pretending to be from the legitimate financial institutions to recipients and asking for personal information such as username and password.

Unsolicited and phishing emails were successfully isolated from legitimate emails, using analysis results.

Abstract:

In recent years, machine learning (ML) has been explored and employed in many fields. However, there are growing concerns about the robustness of machine learning models. These concerns are further amplified in security-critical applications — attackers can manipulate the inputs (i.e., adversarial examples) to cause machine learning models to make a mistake, and it's very challenging to obtain a large amount of attackers' data. These make applying machine learning in security-critical applications difficult. In this dissertation, we present several approaches to robustifying three machine lea

Abstract:

Phishing has been a big concern due to its active roles in recent data breaches and state- sponsored attacks. While existing works have extensively analyzed phishing websites and detection methods, there is still a limited understanding of the data flow of the phishing process. In this thesis, we perform an empirical measurement to draw a clear picture of the data flow of phishing from both attacker and defender perspectives. First, from attackers' perspective, we want to know how attackers collect the sensitive information stolen from victims throughout the end-to-end phishing attack process.
