pirocheto/phishing-url

Dataset Description

The provided dataset includes 11430 URLs with 87 extracted features.
The dataset are designed to be used as a benchmark for machine learning based phishing detection systems.
The datatset is balanced, it containes exactly 50% phishing and 50% legitimate URLs.

Features are from three different classes:

• 56 extracted from the structure and syntax of URLs
• 24 extracted from the content of their correspondent pages
• 7 are extracetd by querying external services.

The dataset was partitioned randomly into training and testing sets, with a ratio of two-thirds for training and one-third for testing.
