<![CDATA[Phishing is an attack method that relies on a user’s insufficient vigilance and understanding of the internet. For example, an attacker creates an online transaction website and tricks users into logging into the fake website to steal their personal information, such as credit card numbers, email addresses, phone numbers, and physical addresses. This paper proposes implementing an extension to prevent phishing for internet users. In particular, this study develops a smart warning feature for the proposed extension using deep learning models. The proposed extension installed in the web browser protects users by checking for, warning about, and preventing untrusted connections. This study evaluated and compared the performance of machine learning models using a malicious uniform resource locator (URL) dataset containing 651,191 data samples. The results of the investigation confirm that the proposed extension using a convolutional neural network (CNN) achieved a high accuracy of 98.4%.]]>
