Machine Learning-Based Phishing Attack Detection

This paper explores machine learning techniques and evaluates their performances when trained to perform against datasets consisting of features that can differentiate between a Phishing Website and a safe one. This capability of telling these sites apart from one another is vital in the modern-day internet surfing. As more and more of our resources shift online, one vulnerability and a leak of sensitive information by someone could bring everything down in a connected network. This paper's objective through this research is to highlight the best technique for identifying one of the most commonly occurring cyberattacks and thus allow faster identification and blacklisting of such sites, therefore leading to a safer and more secure web surfing experience for everyone. To achieve…
