description

Senior Capstone Project: Detects phishing URLs, text, and emails with confidence scores and explanations.

Phish Finders is a lightweight Chrome extension that delivers real-time, intelligent phishing detection directly in your browser, helping you make safer decisions as you browse, search, and communicate online. Instead of relying on static blacklists, it uses machine learning to dynamically analyze links, websites, and email content, identifying both known and emerging threats as they happen.

The extension provides live feedback on URLs and pages you visit, generating clear, percentage-based risk scores alongside plain-English explanations so you can understand why something may be unsafe before you interact with it. It also integrates with your browsing experience by analyzing search activity and history to surface patterns and highlight potentially risky behavior over time. In addition, Phish Finders can parse selected emails in your gmail inbox to detect phishing attempts through link inspection and language analysis, giving you another layer of protection where attacks most often occur.

All results are presented through a clean, intuitive interface designed to make complex security insights easy to understand. A continuously updating dashboard offers a real-time view of flagged sites, risk trends, and browsing activity, allowing you to stay informed without needing technical expertise.

Phish Finders is built not just to detect threats, but to make them understandable—combining fast, adaptive machine learning with a readable, user-focused design to help you browse with confidence.
