Abstract

In any organization most important issue is in maintaining information security. Nowadays cracking into
security systems is very common issue. Even though all precautions are taken still data may be compromised. One
among this is data theft using web sites. There are thousands of web sites those fool user by wearing a mask of real
web sites. So in order to avoid security leakage it is important to use web sites safely because hacking is growing like a
bamboo tree. Hackers are those whose intention is to break into the system and they may compromise the data or my
not. So it is essential to avoid such situations. There are many ways by which user can safely use web sites and can go
for online transaction. One way is through logging into safe website. This is done by safely logging into registered
URLs. And second is keeping webpage safe by developing it using strong design tools. First one is achieved by
developing a tool that identifies real and fake websites. And second is demonstrated by taking a n example of admin
panel. Main aim of the work is to achieve data security as well as trust.
