Now a days many people are doing online financial transactions. This transaction needs to be secure. There are various attacks present behind this. Phishing is one type of attack. For detecting this attack, various anti-phishing mechanisms are used. In phishing process, suppose cheater sends out thousands of phishing emails with a link to the fake website. Victims click on links in email believing it is legitimate. They enter personal information on that fake website. Fraudsters collect the stolen data and login into correct website. This is an overall process of phishing. We propose a new scheme for online fraud transaction prevention using extended visual cryptography and QR codes. This scheme uses extended visual cryptography for share generation. One time password is used for phishing website detection. Extended visual cryptography is used for converting the QR code into two shares. The system provides security for online users and detecting the phishing websites.

Online fraud transaction prevention system using extended visual cryptography and QR code

Nowadays Online transactions are become very common and there are various attacks occur behind this. In these types of various attacks, phishing is very common attack. For detecting this attack various anti-phishing mechanisms are used. Propose a new authentication scheme for se-cure OTP distribution in phishing website detection through EVC and QR codes. The Website Detection using extended visual cryptography (EVC) technique and OTP to solve the problem of phishing. Here an image based authentication using extended visual cryptography is implemented with the combination of OTP (One Time Password). Image based QR codes authentication using EVC is used. The use of secret sharing technique is discovered to convert the QR code into two shares and both these shares can then be transmitted separately. One Time Passwords (OTP) is passwords which are valid only for a session to validate the user within a specified amount of time. The system provides high security requirements of the online users and protects them against various security attacks. Also the system is very user-friendly. It is reliable method for detecting phishing websites.

Anti-Phishing framework based on Extended Visual Cryptography and QR code

Online shopping allows consumers to buy goods or services over the Internet. As the popularity of online shopping increases, Debit or Credit card fraud and personal information security are major concerns for customers, merchants, and banks. Identity theft and phishing are the common dangers of online shopping. In phishing process, suppose cheater sends out thousands of phishing emails with a link to the fake website. Victims click on links in email believing it is legitimate. They enter personal information on that fake website. Fraudsters use this information to login to the original website. This paper proposes a new scheme of detecting and preventing phishing sites. It is done using extended visual cryptography, steganography and android application. It reduces user interaction by auto-upload of shares and QR code details during authentication and this adds to security by reducing errors due to manual intervention.

Phishing Site Detection and Blacklisting Using EVCS, Steganography Based on Android Application

E-commerce applications provide on-line clients
and merchants with a quick and convenient way to exchange
goods and services. However, the deployment of these
applications is still facing many problems such as security
threats; and on-line attacks. These often cause users to be
concerned about their own privacy and encourage them to stop
using on-line methods. Thus, a number of on-line authentication
technologies and methods have been developed in order to
authenticate users and merchants, verify their identities, and
therefore overcome e-commerce security threats. Although
stand-alone authentication solutions have been successful in
authenticating legitimate clients and in defeating on-line attacks,
they are often weak in overcoming the Man-In-The-Browser
(MITB) attack, which is a type of Internet threat that infects a
web-browser in a concealed fashion, and is invisible to both client
and host applications. This paper presents a Mobile User
Authentication System (MUAS) that uses QR code technology to
authenticate on-line users, through a challenge/response protocol.
Based on this mechanism, the system integrates different
authentication technologies and methods to provide an improved
and secure on-line user and merchant authentication system that
overcomes MITB attack, without compromising usability and
ubiquity.

Mobile User Authentication System for E-commerce Applications.

Phishing is an attack by a group or an individual to misuse personal information such as passwords, credit card information etc. for identity theft, financial gain and other fraudulent activities. In this paper image based (QR codes) authentication using Visual Cryptography (VC) is used. Visual cryptography is explored to convert the QR code into two shares and both these shares can then be transmitted separately. One Time Passwords (OTP) is passwords which are valid only for a session to validate the user within a specified amount of time. In this paper we are doing comparison of our paper with the existing system and show how our method is more efficient and also show our results. General Terms Visual cryptography, Grayscale, Threshold algorithm.
