Abstract
An identity management system prevents users' credential information from being harvested by phishing attackers. The identity management system can installed as a plug in on users' devices. Destinations that solicit users' credential information are verified. For example, web addresses or registered names of websites that receive users' credential information can be verified against known web addresses or registered names to verify their authenticity. When verification of the authenticity of a destination fails, a user is alerted and submission of credential information needs to be confirmed.
