Abstract

Different types of connectivity are available on smartphones such as WiFi, infrared, Bluetooth, GPRS, GPS, and GSM. The ubiquitous computing features of smartphones make them a vital part of our lives. The boom in smartphone technology has unfortunately attracted hackers and crackers as well. Smartphones have become the ideal hub for malware, gray ware, and spyware writers to exploit smartphone vulnerabilities and insecure communication channels. For every security service introduced, there is simultaneously a counterattack to breach the security and vice versa. Until a new mechanism is discovered, the diverse classifications of technology mean that one security contrivance cannot be a remedy for phishing attacks in all circumstances. Therefore, a novel architecture for antiphishing is mandatory that can compensate web page protection and authentication from falsified web pages on smartphones. In this paper, we developed a cluster-based antiphishing (CAP) model, which is a lightweight scheme specifically for smartphones to save energy in portable devices. The model is significant in identifying, clustering, and preventing phishing attacks on smartphone platforms. Our CAP model detects and prevents illegal access to smartphones based on clustering data to legitimate/normal and illegitimate/abnormal. First, we evaluated our scheme with mathematical and algorithmic methods. Next, we conducted a real test bed to identify and counter phishing attacks on smartphones which provided 90% accuracy in the detection system as true positives and less than 9% of the results as true negative.
