Simple but efficient way to protect your customers from phishing attacks

August 26th, 2009

Phishing attacks are becoming more and more popular this days.

Phishing (via wikipedia):
“In the field of computer security, phishing is the criminally fraudulent process of attempting to acquire sensitive information such as usernames, passwords and credit card details by masquerading as a trustworthy entity in an electronic communication. ” (read more)

The messages received from an attacker is very similar to the companies messages and many customers end up in providing sensitive information to attackers.

I recently signed-up on a website, and upon registering it asked me a “Phishing protect key“, so every time I receive a communication from their business I will have a header similar to:

Anti-Phishing Key: “<custom text I entered on registering form>”
This information was inserted by you on your registration form. This “key” lets you verify that <Business> is the sender of this email and fight against the risk of phishing.

I think it’s a very simple and great idea to protect your customer from phishing attacks.

Image over javascript

January 11th, 2009

Hello!

I am using quite often this script, it’s a very simple on but helpful becouse I designed it to be standard.

Well the images used should be in the folowing format: <name>.<extension> and <name>_over.<extension>

And the script is the folowing:

1

7
8
9
10
11
12
13

<script type="text/javascript">
function over(obj)
{
	var length=obj.src.length;
	var index_ext=0;
	while (obj.src.indexOf('.',index_ext+1)!=-1)
	 {
		index_ext=obj.src.indexOf('.',index_ext+1)
	 }
	var extension=obj.src.substring( index_ext , length);
	obj.src=(obj.src.substring(0,index_ext)+"_over"+extension);
}
function out(obj)
{
	var length=obj.src.length;
	var index_ext=0;
	while (obj.src.indexOf('.',index_ext+1)!=-1)
	 {
	 index_ext=obj.src.indexOf('.',index_ext+1)
	 }
	var extension=obj.src.substring( index_ext , length);
	var idx_ov=0;
	obj.src=(obj.src.substring(0,index_ext-5)+extension);
}
</script>

And the usage is as folows:

<img onmouseover="over(this)" onmouseout="out(this)" src="buton.jpg" alt="" />

And here is an example:

Un simplu script JavaScript pentru input-uri

December 16th, 2008


E o chestie des utilizata, dar am facut un mititiel standard pe care il voi folosi si eu in continuare; pentru ca de fiecare data faceam tot cate o alta varianta a acestui script. Cateva secunde, dar e bine sa le economisesti :P

Uite aici despre ce e vorba:

       function toggle_content(event, obj, default_val) {
	if (event.type=="focus") {
		if (obj.value==default_val) {
			obj.value="";
		}
	} else
	if (event.type=="blur") {
		if (obj.value=="") {
			obj.value=default_val;
		}
	}
}

Ok. si cum se apeleaza:

<input name="field" type="text" onfocus="toggle_content(event, this, 'cauta...')" onblur="toggle_content(event, this, 'cauta...')" value="cauta..." />

puteti vedea si un exemplu:
