Abstract

Identifying suspected phishing websites includes: obtaining an address of a website to be identified; determining, according to the address of the website to be identified, that the website to be identified is neither a legal website to be protected nor a phishing website; applying a suspected phishing website rule by matching a regular expression with the address of the website to be identified; and in the event that the matching is successful, determining that the website to be identified is a suspected phishing website.
