Between phishers and the deep blue sea

"Between phishers and the deep blue sea": GREEN ARMOR has an innovative technique, which was designed by a psychologist in conjunction with an information-security expert, was recently introduced to help companies
prevent their customers and employees from falling prey to phishing,
pharming, identity theft, and online fraud.

The system, Identity Cues, which leverages a unique combination of psychology and technology to make obvious to users whether they are
communicating with an organization's legitimate online presence or with a phony site set up by a criminal, has already begun to impress technical
experts with its powerful, yet straightforward, approach.

A recent research-analyst report:

Identity Cues offers major advantages over earlier anti-phishing offerings
from usability, security, implementation, and maintenance standpoints. For
example, there are no extra steps during the login process, and, even if
people do not make a conscious effort to use the anti-phishing/anti-pharming
system, the system can still be effective at protecting them. Users don't
have to download/install any software, carry any security devices, register
for any services, or memorize any extra secrets.
