Possible Security problems

- misuse of data

- input validation

- phishing

 - banking
 - want credentials
 - using email
 - send an email that looks like it comes from the bank
 - link goes to malicious site that looks arbitrarily like the bank (unpack)
 - user types in credentials, potentially gets transparently redirected to real bank site

problem arises from:

* illegitimate email
* link to site that looks like bank but isn’t
* credentials being entered in wrong domain, wrong page
* misappropriated language, images in email, site
* bad/missing/suspect cert?
  - cert/credential combo suspect


Human algorithm

 is domain same for the one where we normally send credentials
 not normally in response to email request
 cert is the same


Think of individual detectors as autonomous

 - how would they be useful?
  - how would they work? to detect?
 - how should they change system state in the normal case?
