Phishing Email Detection Using Machine Learning Techniques

Email phishing has become very prevalent especially now that most of our dealings have become technical. The victim receives a message that looks as if it was sent from a known party and the attack is carried out through a fake cookie that includes a phishing program or through links connected to fake websites, in both cases the goal is to install malicious software on the user's device or direct him to a fake website. Today it is difficult to deploy robust cybersecurity solutions without relying heavily on machine learning algorithms. This research seeks to detect phishing emails using high-accuracy machine learning techniques. using the WEKA tool with data preprocessing we create a proposed methodology to detect emails phishing. outperformed random forest algorithm on Naïve Bayes algorithms by accuracy of 99.03 %.
