Abstract

This paper presents a solution to mitigate real-world phishing attacks. By synergizing data structures, search algorithms, and open-source datasets, the solution precisely detects inputs resembling previous phishing attempts, enabling informed user decisions. Through rigorous testing, the solution attains high accuracy, outperforming existing technologies. Its real-time nature, facilitating dataset updates, curtails phishing success rates, fortifying digital security. This fosters a safer online milieu and underscores the need for proactive cyber defense against evolving threats.
