<![CDATA[Phishing is a common cyber security threat in which attackers attempt to deceive users into disclosing personal information such as passwords, credit card numbers, and other sensitive data. With the rapid advancement of technology, phishing techniques have become increasingly sophisticated and harder to detect using traditional methods. Therefore, it is essential to develop detection techniques capable of identifying phishing websites with high accuracy. This study aims to optimize phishing detection performance by integrating variable correlation analysis for feature selection and applying imbalanced learning techniques to address data imbalance. The research stages include Data Collection, Data Preprocessing, and Data Exploration, which involve correlation analysis, removal of low-correlation features, and data visualization. In the Model Building and Training phase, the dataset is split into features and labels, followed by training and the application of data balancing techniques, ending with Model Evaluation. The evaluated algorithms include Logistic Regression, Naive Bayes, K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), Support Vector Machine (SVM), Multi-Layer Perceptron, Decision Tree, Random Forest, Gradient Boosting, and CatBoost. The results show that the KNN algorithm delivers the best performance, achieving an accuracy of 91.25% and optimal scores in Precision (0.906943), Recall (0.927858), and F1-Score (0.922141), along with the lowest Hamming Loss at 0.0875. In contrast, the SVM algorithm recorded the lowest performance among the tested models. The implementation of this method is expected to contribute to the development of more reliable and accurate phishing detection systems in the future.]]>
