Phishing sends malicious links or attachments through emails that can perform various functions, including capturing the victim's login credentials or account information. These emails harm the victims, cause money loss, and identity theft. In this paper, we contribute to solving the phishing problem by developing an extension for the Google Chrome web browser. In the development of this feature, we used JavaScript PL. To be able to identify and prevent the fishing attack, a combination of Blacklisting and semantic analysis methods was used. Furthermore, a database for phishing sites is generated, and the text, links, images, and other data on-site are analyzed for pattern recognition. Finally, our proposed solution was tested and compared to existing approaches. The results validate that our proposed method is capable of handling the phishing issue substantially.

Expected and unexpected risks in cloud computing, which included data security, data segregation, and the lack of control and knowledge, have led to some dilemmas in several fields. Among all of these dilemmas, the privacy problem is even more paramount, which has largely constrained the prevalence and development of cloud computing. There are several privacy protection algorithms proposed nowadays, which generally include two categories, Anonymity algorithm, and differential privacy mechanism. Since many types of research have already focused on the efficiency of the algorithms, few of them emphasized the different orientation and demerits between the two algorithms. Motivated by this emerging research challenge, we have conducted a comprehensive survey on the two popular privacy protection algorithms, namely K-Anonymity Algorithm and Differential Privacy Algorithm. Based on their principles, implementations, and algorithm orientations, we have done the evaluations of these two algorithms. Several expectations and comparisons are also conducted based on the current cloud computing privacy environment and its future requirements.
