Comment

inspired

By true events

educates and prevents children on phishing and identity thefts

firstly we have copied the UI of facebook by downloading their source code and by getting registered into a onilne domain, then for the phishing , we redirected facebook login to our own php file.Now that we have users credentials, we navigate them to an ordinary website making sure the user doesn't doubt us.

Challenges we ran into

The main challenge we fought was dealing with development of a tool that has the ability to detect such websites. We had to try numerous machine learning models inorder to get the best accuracy.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We have a whooping accuracy of 99.1% in detecting phishing websites and even implemented that in a python GUI application.

What we learned

We learned about developing Python GUI applications and some machine learning models.

What's next for Phishing detection game

We are thinking to develop a stunning User Interface for that and also embed a browser in it so that the player can view the webpage right in the game console.
