Nature Inspired Metaheuristic Effectiveness Used in Phishing Intrusion Detection Systems with Grey Wolf Algorithm Techniques

Abstract

This paper discusses research-based findings of applying metaheuristic optimization techniques and nature-inspired algorithms to detect and mitigate phishing attacks. The focus will be on the Grey Wolf nature-inspired metaheuristic algorithm optimized with Random Forest and Support Vector Machine (SVM) classification. Existing research recommends the development and use of nature-inspired detection techniques to solve complex real-world problems. Existing research using nature-inspired heuristics appears to be promising in solving NP-hard problems such as the traveling salesperson problem. In the same classification of NP-hard, is that of cyber security existing research indicates that the security threats are complex and that providing security is an NP-hard problem. This study is expanding the existing research with a hybrid optimization of nature-inspired metaheuristic with existing classifiers (random forest and SVM) for an improvement in results to include increased true positives and decreased false positives. The proposed study will present the importance of nature and natural processes in developing algorithms and systems with high precision and accuracy.
