With the abundance of phishing sites coming online every day, it is surprising that there are so few software programs available that will help you defend against it. With that in mind we have created an Outlook plug-in that allows you to take the guesswork out of whether an email is legitimate or phishing. The plug-in is installed on your machine and reviews all HTML files sent containing a link. It then takes that link and expands it into text so you can see what site that link will take you to, before you click on it. Below is an example of how Phish Phinder displays a link from a phishing email. For more details on what Phishing is please view Wikipedia.

Features
