Phishing Attacks Survey: Types, Vectors, and Technical Approaches
Phishing attacks, which have existed for several decades and continue to be a major problem today, constitute a severe threat in the cyber world. Attackers are adopting multiple new and creative methods through which to conduct phishing attacks, which are growing rapidly. Therefore, there is a need to conduct a comprehensive review of past and current phishing approaches. In this paper, a review of the approaches used during phishing attacks is presented. This paper comprises a literature review, followed by a comprehensive examination of the characteristics of the existing classic, modern, and cutting-edge phishing attack techniques. The aims of this paper are to build awareness of phishing techniques, educate individuals about these attacks, and encourage the use of phishing prevention techniques, in addition to encouraging discourse among the professional community about this topic.

A comprehensive survey of AI-enabled phishing attacks detection techniques
In recent times, a phishing attack has become one of the most prominent attacks faced by internet users, governments, and service-providing organizations. In a phishing attack, the attacker(s) collects the client’s sensitive data (i.e., user account login details, credit/debit card numbers, etc.) by using spoofed emails or fake websites. Phishing websites are common entry points of online social engineering attacks, including numerous frauds on the websites. In such types of attacks, the attacker(s) create website pages by copying the behavior of legitimate websites and sends URL(s) to the targeted victims through spam messages, texts, or social networking. To provide a thorough understanding of phishing attack(s), this paper provides a literature review of Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques: Machine Learning, Deep Learning, Hybrid Learning, and Scenario-based techniques for phishing attack detection. This paper also presents the comparison of different studies detecting the phishing attack for each AI technique and examines the qualities and shortcomings of these methodologies. Furthermore, this paper provides a comprehensive set of current challenges of phishing attacks and future research direction in this domain.

A novel hybrid approach of SVM combined with NLP and probabilistic neural network for email phishing
Phishing attacks are one of the slanting cyber-attacks that apply socially engineered messages that are imparted to individuals from expert hackers going for tricking clients to uncover their delicate data, the most mainstream correspondence channel to those messages is through clients' emails. Phishing has turned into a generous danger for web clients and a noteworthy reason for money related misfortunes. Therefore, different arrangements have been created to handle this issue. Deceitful emails, also called phishing emails, utilize a scope of impact strategies to convince people to react, for example, promising a fiscal reward or summoning a feeling of criticalness. Regardless of far reaching alerts and intends to instruct clients to distinguish phishing sends, these are as yet a pervasive practice and a worthwhile business. The creators accept that influence, as a style of human correspondence intended to impact others, has a focal job in fruitful advanced tricks. Cyber criminals have ceaselessly propelling their techniques for assault. The current strategies to recognize the presence of such malevolent projects and to keep them from executing are static, dynamic and hybrid analysis. In this work we are proposing a hybrid methodology for phishing detection incorporating feature extraction and classification of the mails using SVM. At last, alongside the chose features, the PNN characterizes the spam mails from the genuine mails with more exactness and accuracy.

Cloud-based email phishing attack using machine and deep learning algorithm
Cloud computing refers to the on-demand availability of personal computer system assets, specifically data storage and processing power, without the client's input. Emails are commonly used to send and receive data for individuals or groups. Financial data, credit reports, and other sensitive data are often sent via the Internet. Phishing is a fraudster's technique used to get sensitive data from users by seeming to come from trusted sources. The sender can persuade you to give secret data by misdirecting in a phished email. The main problem is email phishing attacks while sending and receiving the email. The attacker sends spam data using email and receives your data when you open and read the email. In recent years, it has been a big problem for everyone. This paper uses different legitimate and phishing data sizes, detects new emails, and uses different features and algorithms for classification. A modified dataset is created after measuring the existing approaches. We created a feature extracted comma-separated values (CSV) file and label file, applied the support vector machine (SVM), Naive Bayes (NB), and long short-term memory (LSTM) algorithm. This experimentation considers the recognition of a phished email as a classification issue. According to the comparison and implementation, SVM, NB and LSTM performance is better and more accurate to detect email phishing attacks. The classification of email attacks using SVM, NB, and LSTM classifiers achieve the highest accuracy of 99.62%, 97% and 98%, respectively.

Detecting Phishing Domains Using Machine Learning
Phishing is an online threat where an attacker impersonates an authentic and trustworthy organization to obtain sensitive information from a victim. One example of such is trolling, which has long been considered a problem. However, recent advances in phishing detection, such as machine learning-based methods, have assisted in combatting these attacks. Therefore, this paper develops and compares four models for investigating the efficiency of using machine learning to detect phishing domains. It also compares the most accurate model of the four with existing solutions in the literature. These models were developed using artificial neural networks (ANNs), support vector machines (SVMs), decision trees (DTs), and random forest (RF) techniques. Moreover, the uniform resource locator’s (URL’s) UCI phishing domains dataset is used as a benchmark to evaluate the models. Our findings show that the model based on the random forest technique is the most accurate of the other four techniques and outperforms other solutions in the literature.

A Survey of Machine Learning-Based Solutions for Phishing Website Detection
With the development of the Internet, network security has aroused people’s attention. It can be said that a secure network environment is a basis for the rapid and sound development of the Internet. Phishing is an essential class of cybercriminals which is a malicious act of tricking users into clicking on phishing links, stealing user information, and ultimately using user data to fake logging in with related accounts to steal funds. Network security is an iterative issue of attack and defense. The methods of phishing and the technology of phishing detection are constantly being updated. Traditional methods for identifying phishing links rely on blacklists and whitelists, but this cannot identify new phishing links. Therefore, we need to solve how to predict whether a newly emerging link is a phishing website and improve the accuracy of the prediction. With the maturity of machine learning technology, prediction has become a vital ability. This paper offers a state-of-the-art survey on methods for phishing website detection. It starts with the life cycle of phishing, introduces common anti-phishing methods, mainly focuses on the method of identifying phishing links, and has an in-depth understanding of machine learning-based solutions, including data collection, feature extraction, modeling, and evaluation performance. This paper provides a detailed comparison of various solutions for phishing website detection.
