Abstract: — In the last few years, the web phishing attacks have been constantly evolving, causing the customers to lose their trust in e-commerce, online services, trading platforms and new contacts. Various types of tools and systems based on a blacklist of phishing websites are applied to detect the phishing websites. Unfortunately, the daily continuous evolution of technology has led to the birth of more sophisticated methods when building websites to attract potential users. There is an increase in recent research studies they have been adopting machine learning techniques to identify phishing websites and utilizing them for early alarm methods to identify such threats. Phishing website detection is proposed using particle swarm optimization-based feature weighting is proposed to enhance the detection of phishing websites. The proposed approach of our work suggests the utilization of particle swarm optimization (PSO) to analyze various records of website features effectively to achieve higher accuracy while detecting phishing websites. The experimental results indicated that the proposed PSO-based feature analysis which achieved an outstanding improvement in the terms of classifying the accuracy and determining the best algorithm approach
