Sitehound plugs in Phishtank

Submitted by adminThursday, 15th March 2007

Sitehound is now able to provide much more accurate and timely detection and protection from phishing websites. In addition to our own sources and users who report sites to us, SiteHound will soon plug into PhishTank's live XML feed of known phishing websites. PhishTank, which started in September 2006 in San Francisco, is a free community-based anti-phishing service operated by OpenDNS,where anyone can submit, verify and track phishing data. PhishTank is providing this information free to the greater internet community, and its community-driven nature gives it the ability to capture an enormous amount of anti-phishing data every day.
