phishing site by comparing connected web site information with normal
site information.
To this end, the method includes the steps of: (a) extracting information

the same domain as the connected site exists in a database, comparing the
connected site information with the normal site information; and (c) if
the connected site information does not match the normal site
information, alerting a user that the connected site is a phishing site.
Therefore, the user may safely use the Internet by confirming whether the
