Now-a-days internet has become a very unsafe space to deal with. Hackers are constantly trying to gain the user's personal information, and detailed credentials. So many websites on the internet, even though safe, this safety cannot be assured by all websites. These rule breakers avoid abiding by rules, and try to employ methods like trickery and hacking to gain illegal access to private information. T o be able to overcome this problem, we need to first understand the intricacies of how the virus is designed. This paper mainly deals with the different phishing techniques and recent phishing attacks that took place during COVID 19. like Link Manipulation, Filter Evasion, Website Forgery, Phone Phishing and Website Forgery. We have also studied a subtle method to perform phishing attacks that makes links appear legitimate, but actually redirect a victim to an attacker's website called Convert Redirect. In this paper , we present some phishing examples like Paypal phishing which involves sending an email that fraudulently claims to be from a well known company and Rapidshare Phishing where in the spoofed web page, phishers attempt to confuse their victims just enough to entice them to enter their login name and password. To perform these types of phishing the Phishers uses so many phishing techniques like Link Manipulation, Filter Evasion, Website Forgery, Phone Phishing and Website Forgery. Phishing techniques include the domain of email messages. Phishing emails have hosted such a phishing website, where a click on the URL or the malware code as executing some actions to perform is socially engineered messages. Lexically analyzing the URLs can enhance the performance and help to differentiate between the original email and the phishing URL. As assessed in this study , in addition to textual analysis of phishing URL, email classification is successful and results in a highly precise anti phishing. From the thorough analysis of the research paper, we have understood how phishing attacks work and the different methods employed to carry out the attack. Also, we have studied some of the most recent phishing attacks and measures taken by the authorities to overcome and prevent any such attacks in future.
The scope of our project is to control a music player using human gestures. This employs a camera along with an embedded system to segment human gestures and convert them to control signals in real-time. With the help of the Music Controller, one can simply wave or do a simple gesture of hand movement in front of the webcam which will in turn switch or pause the particular music track that was being played. Our project mainly focuses on scenarios where we are multitasking that is working on many applications at a time or running various programs at a time on our desktop and along with that listening to music in background that is music being played in one of the windows. At such times if we wish to pause or switch a particular music track we have to make some movements like switching to the music window and doing the desired operation. With the help of Music Controller, one can simply wave or do a simple gesture of hand movement in front of the webcam which will in turn switch or pause the particular music track that was being played.
