Abstract

The present application provides a method and system for detecting malicious web addresses. The method includes: receiving a uniform resource locator (URL) reported by a user; acquiring a HyperText Transfer Protocol (HTTP) request chain associated with the URL, wherein the HTTP request chain is a sequential linked list including information about multiple HTTP request-response interactions during an access to the URL; and analyzing the HTTP request chain to determine whether the URL is a malicious web address. The technical solution of the present application can provide an accurate result of malicious web address detection, can detect various newly emerging malicious web addresses, and are user-friendly. The user only needs to upload the URL and does not need to provide any other information.
