ABSTRACT

Phishing is a severe security risk that has negative impacts on both the individuals and the brands it targets. Despite the fact that this danger has been around for a while, it is still quite active and effective. In truth, attackers’ strategies have continued to evolve to make their attacks more convincing and successful. Identification of phishing is crucial in this situation due to the use of intelligent approaches. This chapter provides a wide range of strategies to address this problem, particularly the identification of phishing websites. By addressing the key issues and discoveries, it also offers an extensive and thorough evaluation of the state of the art in this area. Specifically, three significant kinds of detection approaches—list-based, software-based, and intelligent learning-based—are the focus of the discussion.
