Web filtering | [42] | Analyze browsed websites and identify possible phishing sites in order to warn the user or completely block access to the suspected sites |
Website take-downs | [44] | Take down the phishing site to prevent potential victims from accessing such websites (usually by external parties such as LEAs or hosting service providers) |
