AI-enabled phishing link detection and alert system

Artificial Intelligence

Phishing attacks are an ever-present and substantial menace in the realm of cyber-security. They are cunningly designed to deceive both individuals and organizations, ultimately leading to the unauthorized ac-quisition of sensitive personal information, account credentials, credit card details, or-ganizational data, or even client passwords, all for malicious purposes. These malicious actors create phishing websites with re-markable skill, expertly mimicking legiti-mate ones, making it exceptionally chal-lenging to distinguish them from genuine sites. Consequently, phishing attacks stand as one of the most perilous and frequently encountered threats faced by both individ-uals and organizations. It is important to understand that web URLs serve as gate-ways to access information on the internet, and these very gateways are exploited by phishing attackers. Recognizing the gravity of this issue, this review paper is dedicated to raising awareness about phishing attacks, bolstering detection methods, and advocat-ing proactive measures for preventing phishing among its readership. Given the staggering volume of phishing emails and messages inundating inboxes daily, it is increasingly arduous for companies and individuals to identify and counter every instance of phishing at tempts. Hence, it becomes paramount to develop and implement effective strategies for combating this persistent and evolving threat
