Abstract
Phishing is a “con trick” by which consumers are sent email urporting to originate from legitimate services like banks or ther financial institutions. Phishing can be thought of as the marriage of social gineering and technology. The goal of a phisher is typically to learn information that allows him to access resources elonging to his victims. The most common type of phishing attack aims to obtain account numbers and passwords used for online banking, in order to either steal money from these ccounts or use them as “stepping stones” in money laundry schemes. In the latter type of situation, the phisher, who may belong to a riminal organization or a errorist organization, will transfer money between accounts hat he controls (without stealing money from either of them) in order to obscure the actual flow of funds from some payer to ome payee. Phishing is therefore not only of concern for otential victims and their financial institutions, but also to ociety at large[1]. In hacker's worlds, there is something called 'Key Logger'. The purpose of key logger is to log every key that you type in your keyboard, this includes every single personal nformation that you have typed in your keyboard while you surf he Net such as log in into your online banking. Once your assword has been logged, the hacker can use your nformation to their benefit[2]. Using Virtual Keyboard which ontains randomly generated keys adds another security layer o authenticate yourself to their system. Virtual Keyboard works just like regular keyboard, one thing is you don't type it in your keyboard. Rather, you will be using your mouse to type the assword by using virtual keyboard[3] .
