Cybersecurity graduate who built a Chrome extension that detects phishing URLs in real time with 94% classification accuracy.
NigeriaWhat I'm looking for
For my final-year project at Al-Hikmah University, I built a working Chrome extension that flags phishing URLs in real time. The detection system combined XGBoost and MLP classifiers with a hybrid GWO-PSO feature selection algorithm, achieving 94% classification accuracy.
I also prepared a manuscript for academic publication and addressed peer-review feedback across multiple revision cycles.
At HiiT Plc, I completed SIWES and gained practical exposure to IT and networking operations. I’m looking for an entry-level opportunity to apply my skills in security analysis, threat detection, and network defense.
