Phishing is an act of creating a website similar to a legitimate website with a motive of stealing user's confidential information. Phishing fraud might be the most popular cybercrime. Phishing is one of the risks that originated a couple of years back but still prevailing. This paper discusses various phishing attacks, some of the latest phishing evasion techniques used by attackers and anti-phishing approaches. This review raises awareness of those phishing strategies and helps the user to practice phishing prevention. Here, a hybrid approach of phishing detection also described having fast response time and high accuracy.

Collaborative filtering (CF) is a successful and hence most widely used technique for recommender systems. However, it is vulnerable to shilling attack due to its open nature, which results in generating biased or false recommendations for users. In literature, segment attack (push attack) has been widely studied and investigated while rare studies have been performed on nuke attack, to the best of our knowledge. Further, the robustness of binary collaborative filtering and hybrid approach has not been investigated against segment-focused attack. In this paper, from the perspective of robustness, binary collaborative filtering, hybrid approach, stand-alone rating user-based, and stand-alone rating item- based recommendation have been evaluated against segment attack on a large dataset (100K ratings) which is found to be more successful as it attacks target set of items. With an aim to find an approach which reflects a higher accuracy in recommending items and is less vulnerable to segment-based attack, the possibility of any relationship between accuracy and vulnerability of six CF approaches were studied. Such an approach needs to be re-examined by the researchers marking the future of recommender system (RS). Experimental results show negligible positive correlation between accuracy and vulnerability of techniques. Publicly available dataset namely MovieLens was used for conducting experiments. Robustness and accuracy of CF techniques were calculated using prediction shift and F-measure, respectively.

This research proposes an inspection on Trust Based Routing protocols to protect Internet of Things directing to authorize dependability and privacy amid to direction-finding procedure in inaccessible systems. There are number of Internet of Things (IOT) gadgets are interrelated all inclusive, the main issue is the means by which to protect the routing of information in the important systems from different types of stabbings. Clients won't feel secure on the off chance that they know their private evidence could without much of a stretch be gotten to and traded off by unapproved people or machines over the system. Trust is an imperative part of Internet of Things (IOT). It empowers elements to adapt to vulnerability and roughness caused by the through and through freedom of other devices. In Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) host moves frequently in any bearing, so that the topology of the network also changes frequently. No specific algorithm is used for routing the packets. Packets/data must be routed by intermediate nodes. It is procumbent to different occurrences ease. There are various approaches to compute trust for a node such as fuzzy trust approach, trust administration approach, hybrid approach, etc. Adaptive Information Dissemination (AID) is a mechanism which ensures the packets in a specific transmission and it analysis of is there any attacks by hackers.It encompasses of ensuring the packet count and route detection between source and destination with trusted path.Trust estimation dependent on the specific condition or setting of a hub, by sharing the setting information onto alternate hubs in the framework would give a superior answer for this issue.Here we present a survey on various trust organization approaches in MANETs. We bring out instantaneous of these approaches for establishing trust of the partaking hubs in a dynamic and unverifiable MANET atmosphere.

Rapid development of internet and network technologies has led to considerable increase in number of attacks. Intrusion detection system is one of the important ways to achieve high security in computer networks. However, it have curse of dimensionality which tends to increase time complexity and decrease resource utilization. To improve the ability of detecting anomaly intrusions, a combined algorithm is proposed based on Weighted Fuzzy C-Mean Clustering Algorithm (WFCM) and Fuzzy logic. Decision making is performed in two stages. In the first stage, WFCM algorithm is applied to reduce the input data space. The reduced dataset is then fed to Fuzzy Logic scheme to build the fuzzy sets, membership function and the rules that decide whether an instance represents an anomaly or not.

The growing popularity of Android applications makes them vulnerable to security threats. There exist several studies that focus on the analysis of the behaviour of Android applications to detect the repackaged and malicious ones. These techniques use a variety of features to model the application's behaviour, among which the calls to Android API, made by the application components, are shown to be the most reliable. To generate the APIs that an application calls is not an easy task. This is because most malicious applications are obfuscated and do not come with the source code. This makes the problem of identifying the API methods invoked by an application an interesting research issue. In this paper, we present HyDroid, a hybrid approach that combines static and dynamic analysis to generate API call traces from the execution of an application's services. We focus on services because they contain key characteristics that allure attackers to misuse them. We show that HyDroid can be used to extract API call trace signatures of several malware families.
