  • Phishing abuse recognition in web pages
    Patent number: 8433141
    Abstract: A method of identifying potential phishing abuse images includes: producing a first color map that represents a subset of color values and pixel locations within a base image; producing a second color map that represents color values and pixel locations within a target image; selecting an alignment the first color map with the second color map such that at least some pixel locations of the first color map align with at least some pixel locations of the second color map; determining a measure of color value matching of aligned pixel locations for the selected alignment; and repeating the acts of selecting and determining until a prescribed threshold measure of color value matching is determined for at least one of the selected alignments or until an evaluation limit is reached.
