Phishing detection using clustering and machine learning

<span lang="EN-US">Phishing is a prevalent and evolving cyber threat that continues to exploit human vulnerability to deceive individuals and organizations into revealing sensitive information. Phishing attacks encompass a range of tactics, from deceptive emails and fraudulent websites to social engineering techniques. Traditional methods of detection, such as signature-based approaches and rule-based filtering, have proven to be limited in their effectiveness, as attackers frequently adapt and create new, previously unseen phishing campaigns. Consequently, there is a growing need for more sophisticated and adaptable detection methods. In recent years, Machine Learning (ML) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) have played a significant role in enhancing phishing detection. These technologies leverage large datasets to train models capable of recognizing subtle patterns and anomalies in both email content and website behavior. This research proposes a hybrid algorithm to detect phishing attack based on clustering and classification ML methods (CMLM): Deep Learning (DL) and Decision Tree (DT). Simulation results show that the proposed technique achieves high percentage of accuracy in detecting phishing</span>
