Abstract

Phishing detection in Semantic Web systems is crucial to safeguarding users from malicious attacks. In this context, this work presents a deep learning-based phishing attack detection model using MobileBERT for feature extraction and hyperparameter optimization using covariance matrix adaptation evolution strategy (CMA-ES). The model obtained a 95% classification accuracy. Important benchmarks like accuracy, recall, and F1-score show good ability to discriminate between phishing and legitimate emails. Applying CMA-ES, which improved detection accuracy, helps to verify the model even more. MobileBERT and CMA-ES together offer Semantic Web systems a fresh, efficient method of phishing detection.
