Abstract

In today’s online environment, websites face constant SQL injection and cross-site scripting attacks - mostly because many developers still do not properly check user inputs. Our team has built a smart scanning tool that finds these security holes, thoroughly checks websites for weak points, and gives practical advice on how to fix them before hackers can break in. Improvements include SVM, Light GBM, Machine Learning (ML) models to detect phishing. This tool not only identifies vulnerabilities but also provides blocking to protect against cyber threats, significantly enhancing web application security. Machine Learning (ML) models trained on historical attack data enabling the system to adjust and respond to emerging threat techniques while reducing incorrect alerts. A phishing attack is a simple way to obtain sensitive information from users. The main aim of attackers is to get information from users like their user ID, password, personal details, and bank details. The paper aims to detect phishing URLs using LightGBM and Support Vector Machine algorithm.
