Detect Phishing Websites using Machine Learning
Project description
Fluffy Pancakes
Fluffy Pancakes is a library designed to detect phishing websites. It uses Machine Learning to predict the output with an accuracy of 95.2%.
Note: Please bear with us for a few seconds to get the output since the library is computationally intensive. We felt bad for making you wait, so we have included a progress bar that you can enable to see the percentage of progress and also the time taken for execution. Also note that the library heavily depends on a stable internet connection to function its best and to obtain the results. So, the quicker your internet connection is, the faster your results will be :).
Usage
-
Install the module
$ pip install fluffypancakes
-
Import
$ import fluffypancakes
-
Call the function and Pass the URL
$ print(fluffypancakes.serve('<website URL>', progressBar=True))
-
Defaults
The default value of the progressBar is 'True'. However, the option can be enabled or disabled with boolean 'True' or 'False' respectively.
Output
-1 : Legitimate Website
1 : Phishing Website
The output is predicted with an accuracy of 95.2%. It is not a definitive classification.
Dependencies
Python dependencies:
- beautifulsoup4>=4.9.0
- numpy>=1.17.2
- pandas>=1.0.4
- python-whois>=0.7.2
- requests>=2.23.0
- scikit-learn>=0.21.3
- selenium>=3.141.0
- sklearn>=0.0
- tqdm>=4.46.0
- urllib3>=1.25.8
Additional dependencies:
-
Chrome Driver : You'll need a chromedriver in order to complete execution of the code. You can get the file from here. Unzip and add the "chromedriver.exe" (Windows) or "chromedriver" (Linux and MacOS) file to the PYTHONPATH environment variable.
Well, that's a lot of work right? We know! So, we have included the current stable version of the chromedriver in the dependencies folder of the repo.
The code automatically detects the OS (Windows, Linux Based and MacOS) and picks up the respective chromedriver file.
You're all set to go. Although, if, by any chance, you face an issue, just add to PYTHONPATH, the directory structure to where you downloaded this repository.
Development
Want to contribute? Great!
FluffyPancakes uses http requests, bs4, selenium, and of course, Machine Learning, and a lot more libraries. You can find the GitHub repository here.
Make sure you use the following command to get the exact versions of pytest and check-manifest:
$ pip install -e .[dev]
You can find the sample test case here.
