Abstract

Phishing attacks are one of the major cyber security threats, where attackers deceive users into revealing sensitive information through fraudulent websites. This project proposes a real-time phishing website detection system using a hybrid machine learning algorithm that combines Extreme Gradient Boosting (XG-Boost) and an Artificial Neural Network (ANN). A labeled dataset containing both legitimate and phishing URLs is used to train and evaluate the proposed model. Various URL-based features, including structural properties, security indicators, and domain-related attributes, are extracted to enhance detection accuracy. The XG-Boost model effectively captures complex feature interactions, while the ANN improves generalization by learning non-linear patterns. The hybrid approach integrates predictions from both models to achieve improved robustness and reduced overfitting. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed system achieves high accuracy and reliable performance in detecting phishing websites. This approach enables early identification of phishing threats and can be integrated into web-based security solutions to enhance user safety and prevent online fraud..
