Phishing websites, Machine Learning, Content based features, URLs, Attacks

Phishing is a prevalent and perilous form of cybercrime. The objective of this assault is to illicitly obtain user information by gaining unauthorized access to the credentials utilized by individuals and organizations. Phishing websites typically offer a variety of clues and information that may be found on the web. Phishing sites attempt to obtain the victim's sensitive information by tricking them into visiting a website that seems similar to a legitimate one. This is a common type of criminal attack on the internet. Phishing websites are a type of cyber threat that aim to get sensitive information, such as credit card details and social security numbers. Currently, there is no definitive solution available to identify phishing assaults that is both reliable and unpredictable. This is due to the presence of multiple factors and criteria that are always changing. This research aims to utilize Machine Learning techniques to classify features, specifically Phishing Websites Data, in the UC Irvine Machine Learning Repository database. Web pages can be classified into various categories based on their properties. Therefore, in order to thwart phishing attempts, it is imperative to utilize a distinct characteristic of web pages. We have presented a model that utilizes machine learning techniques, specifically Naïve Bayes, to identify and classify phishing web pages. Various machine learning algorithms, including Naïve Bayes (NB), ANN, Random Forest, Adaboost, and XGBoost, were compared for results assessment. It was found that the identified algorithm achieved a high accuracy score.
