Method and apparatus for detecting system message misrepresentation using a keyword analysis
First Claim
1. A method of using one or more processors for detecting system message misrepresentation in memory by performing a keyword analysis, comprising:
- monitoring, via at least one computer processor, visual representation object creation within a user interface by detecting each new window that is created by a browser;
accessing keyword information comprising commonly used text for misrepresenting system messages;
examining internet activity by parsing created visual representation objects displayed to a user and using the keyword information to produce an examination result, wherein the internet activity is for the created visual representation objects and the examination result comprises a value based upon matching keywords;
identifying deceptive text within at least one of the created visual representation objects based on the examination result; and
producing indicia of detection as to the deceptive text.
