A network device and method are directed towards providing a client side identification mechanism for use detecting phishing attempts. In one embodiment, a user of a client device may provide anti-phishing data through an anti-phish setup interface for a website, application, or the like. In one embodiment, the anti-phishing data is an image. The client device then receives client device data indicating the website, application, or the like, for which the anti-phishing data is associated and where the anti-phishing data is located. In one embodiment, the client device data is received in the form of a cookie. When the user of the client device accesses the website, application, or the like, the client device may provide the client device data which is then used to locate and display the anti-phishing data. If the user is being phished, the anti-phishing data may not be displayed or otherwise played.
