Phishing is one of the most severe cyber-attacks where researchers are interested to find a solution. In phishing, attackers lure end-users and steal their personal information. To minimize the damage caused by phishing must be detected as early as possible. There are various phishing attacks like spear phishing, whaling, vishing, smishing, pharming and so on. There are various phishing detection techniques based on whitelist, black-list, content-based, URL-based, visualsimilarity and machine…

All kinds of phishing are classified, including E-mail phishing and search engine phishing, and existing and widely used detection methods are divided into seven categories such as list-based heuristic machine learning, and introduces them in detail.

A Survey of Machine Learning-Based Solutions for Phishing Website Detection

A detailed comparison of various solutions for phishing website detection is provided, starting with the life cycle of phishing, and introduces common anti-phishing methods, which mainly focuses on the method of identifying phishing links.

An adaptive approach for internet phishing detection based on log data

The proposed system for this paper includes efficient data extraction from the web file through data collection and preprocessing, and feature-extracting URL analysis to detect website phishing addresses, which results in a classification algorithm being applied to determine if website addresses are phishing or legitimate.

Analysis of email phishing in session hijacking

The purpose of this study is to provide information on how to identify an infected email and educate users about the features of phishing emails, based on the layout ofphishing concepts and knowing how a phishing attack occurs.

Fraud usage detection in internet users based on log data

The proposed system in this paper includes efficient data extraction from the web file through data collection and preprocessing, and feature-extracting URL analysis to detect website phishing addresses, which shows the robustness of the proposed system.

Smishing Strategy Dynamics and Evolving Botnet Activities in Japan

Frida’s hooking capability was employed to decode the upper layers (WebSocket and JSON-RPC) to create a list of all commands flowing over the botnet channel, and the proposed malicious domain detection method exploited the tendency of the attackers to create domains in batches.

Deep Learning Based Sentiment Analysis for Phishing SMS Detection

This chapter is based on a discussion and comparison of various classification models that are used for phishing SMS detection through sentiment analysis and CNN showed the highest accuracy of 99.47% as a classification model.

Systematic Literature Review: Anti-Phishing Defences and Their Application to Before-the-click Phishing Email Detection

This paper discusses the performance and suitability of using these techniques for detecting phishing emails before the end-user even reads the email, and suggests some promising areas for further research.
