Vigilant Core OWASP Vulnerability and Phishing Defense Platform

This paper presents the design and implementation of a web security tool that combines phishing website detection and basic web vulnerability scanning. The system is developed using Python and integrates custom phishing detection logic, URL analysis, and web scraping techniques to identify malicious websites. The proposed system analyzes various features such as URL length, presence of IP address in URL, HTTPS usage, suspicious keywords, redirection behavior, and HTML form actions to determine whether a website is phishing or legitimate. In addition to phishing detection, the tool also performs basic vulnerability scanning by analyzing web page content, open ports, and security misconfigurations. The system includes a graphical user interface to provide user-friendly interaction and real-time scanning results. The experimental results show that the system can effectively identify phishing websites and detect common web vulnerabilities. This tool can be useful for users, students, and small organizations to improve awareness and protection against phishing attacks and web security threats.
