Traditionally, detection methods have relied on blacklists and heuristic rules, but these approaches are showing their limitations in the face of rapidly evolving attack techniques. Artificial Intelligence (AI) offers promising solutions for improving phishing detection, prediction and prevention. In our study, we analyzed three supervised machine learning classifiers and one deep learning classifier for detecting and predicting phishing websites: Naive Bayes, Decision Tree, Gradient Boosting and Multi-Layer Perceptron. The results showed that the Gradient Boosting Classifier performed best, with a precision of 96.2%, a F1-score of 96.6%, recall and precision of 99.9% in all classes, and a mean absolute error (MAE) of just 0.002. Closely followed by the Gradient Boosting Classifier with a precision of 96.2% and a score of 96.6%. In contrast, Naive Bayes and the Decision Tree showed a lower accuracy rate. These results underline the importance of high accuracy in these models to reduce the risk associated with malicious attachments and reinforce security measures in this area of research.展开更多

In a clearer way, it aims to verify the level of knowledge of the vulnerabilities, to verify the level of use of the antivirus software, to analyze the frequency of use of Windows update, the use of an anti-spyware software as well as a firewall software on the computer. Through a survey conducted on a sample of 100 agents of the Institut Supérieur Pédagogique/ISP-Bukavu (TTC = Teachers’ training College), the results revealed that 48% of the sample has no knowledge on computer vulnerabilities;for the use of antivirus software: 47% do not use the antivirus;for Windows update: 29% never update the Windows operating system;for anti-spyware: 48% never use;for the firewall: 50% are not informed. In fine, our results proposed a protection model VMAUSP (Vulnerability Measurability Measures Antivirus, Update, Spyware and Firewall) to users based on the behavioral approach, learning how the model works.展开更多
