Malicious Uniform Resource Locator (URL) is a frequent and severe menace to cybersecurity. Malicious URLs are used to extract unsolicited information and trick inexperienced end users as a sufferer of scams and create losses of billions of money each year. It is crucial to identify and appropriately respond to such URLs. Usually, this discovery is made by the practice and use of blacklists in the cyber world. However, blacklists cannot be exhaustive, and cannot recognize zero-day malicious URLs. So to increase the observation of malicious URL indicators, machine learning procedures should be incorporated. In this study, we have developed a complete prototype of Malicious URL Detection using machine learning methods. In particular, we have attempted an exact formulation of Malicious URL exposure from a machine learning perspective and proposed an approach using the AdaBoost algorithm-the proposed approach has brought forward more accuracy than other existing algorithms.
