Deep Learning Multi-Agent Model for Phishing Cyber-attack Detection

Abstract

Phishing attacks have become one of the most prominent cyber threats in recent times, which poses a significant risk to the security of organizations and individuals. Therefore, detecting such Cyber attacks has become crucial to ensure a secure digital environment. In this regard, deep learning techniques have shown promising results for the detection of phishing attacks due to their ability to learn and extract features from raw data. In this study, we propose a deep learning-based approach to detecting phishing attacks by using a combination of convolutional neural networks (CNN) and long short-term memory (LSTM) networks. Our proposed model extracts features from the URL and email content to detect phishing attempts. We evaluate the proposed approach on a real-world dataset and achieve an accuracy of over 95%. The results indicate that the proposed approach can effectively detect phishing attacks and can be utilized in real-world applications to ensure a secure digital environment.
