Abstract
There is disclosed a computer-implemented system and method for protecting a user from phishing attacks, including detecting that the user has opened a website associated with a uniform resource locator (URL), and determining that the URL does not have a known good reputation; rendering a test version of the website in a headless web browser, including abstracting the website into at least one visual element of the test version; visually inspecting the test version of the website with a digital eye, and determining that the test version of the web looks like a known legitimate website not associated with the URL; and based on the visual inspection, warning the user that the website is or may be a phishing website.
