Prevention of Cyber Attacks Using Deep Learning

Today, technology has become a integral part of the day-to-day life for everyone of us. It has become very advanced, where doing bad has become more simpler than doing good. One such bad things done using technology is cyber attack. A cyber attack is the attack done by the hackers, phishers using internet as the medium. Phishing, website scamming are the most common cyber attacks committed by the cybercriminals. Phishing is the practice of stealing the sensitive, personal data from the victim machine via anonymous URL’s. These URL’s are sent to victim’s (user’s) machine via emails, SMS (smishing) and other social media. Website Scamming is the practice of making financial scams(done by hackers) through fraudulent e-commerce websites and payment gateways. The proposed work focuses on making an ideal application, which could detect if the URL is genuine or not so that many people who are exploring those fake sites and URLs, can be prevented from becoming the victims of the cyber attacks.
