  • Unraveling Phishing Attacks and Countermeasures: A Comprehensive Review
    Ali Raheem Al-Hafiz, Adnan J. Jabir
    Iraqi Journal for Electrical and Electronic Engineering, 2026
    Recent advancements in communication and wireless technologies have greatly increased the number of internet users. These users often share personal information online, making it vulnerable to attackers. Phishing, a common type of online fraud, involves tricking people into giving their personal information through spam or other deceptive methods. Even though this threat has been around for a long time, it is still very active and successful. Attackers have improved their methods over the years to make their attacks more convincing and effective. Therefore, it is important to carefully study this type of attack to raise awareness among both users and cybersecurity researchers. This review paper explains the basics, types, and methods of phishing and presents a unified attack lifecycle framework to provide users and researchers with a clear understanding of phishing. Additionally, anti-phishing methods are thoroughly analyzed to determine their strengths and weaknesses. Researchers use different strategies to develop anti-phishing solutions, including blacklisting, whitelisting, heuristics, machine learning, and deep learning techniques. To help readers choose the best anti-phishing solution, research studies using these strategies are categorized, evaluated, and compared using specific criteria to show their strengths and weaknesses. Furthermore, the datasets used to develop anti-phishing models are discussed and reviewed. Finally, this paper provides a detailed overview of current phishing challenges and suggests future research directions in this area.
  • K-Gen PhishGuard: an Ensemble Approach for Phishing Detection with K-Means and Genetic Algorithm
    Ali Al-Hafiz, Adnan Jabir, Shamala Subramaniam
    Al Khwarizmi Engineering Journal, 2025
    Phishing detection is considered a critical problem in cybersecurity, and utilising machine learning with an efficient feature selection method for precisely identifying malicious websites is deemed the most critical challenge. This research presents a two-phase phishing detection system by employing unsupervised feature selection and supervised classification. In the first phase, the best set of features is identified by the Genetic algorithm and is utilised by the K-means clustering algorithm to divide the dataset into groups with similar traits. In the second phase, the best set of features in each group is identified through the Genetic algorithm to enhance the classification process. Finally, a voting ensemble technique is applied, in which the Support Vector Machine (SVM), Random Forest (RF), Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) and Adaptive boosting (AdaBoost) models are combined. Predictions are aggregated using a soft voting mechanism. This research utilises the web page phishing detection dataset, which consists of 11,430 URLs with 87 features. From the results, an accuracy of 99% is achieved using the voting ensemble technique with feature selection compared with 77.3% without feature selection. The model performance experiences a significant boost through the GA-optimised feature selection by reducing computational complexity and improving key metrics such as accuracy, precision and F1-score. Additionally, the performance across four clusters demonstrates the positive impact of K-Means clustering in improving classification accuracy for specific data groups. As proven by the obtained results, integrating feature selection with ensemble learning is effective for phishing detection; moreover, the scalability and efficiency of such a solution in real-world applications are demonstrated.

  • A Multi-Objective Task Offloading Optimization for Vehicular Fog Computing
    Sura Kh. Abdullah, Adnan J. Jabir
    Iraqi Journal of Science, 2022
    Internet of Vehicle (IoV) is one of the most basic branches of the Internet of Things (IoT), which provides many advantages for drivers and passengers to ensure safety and traffic efficiency. Most IoV applications are delay-sensitive and require resources for data storage and computation that cannot be afforded by vehicles. Thus, such tasks are always offloaded to more powerful nodes, like cloud or fog. Vehicular Fog Computing (VFC), which extends cloud computing and brings resources closer to the edge of the network, has the potential to reduce both traffic congestion and load on the cloud. Resources management and allocation process is very critical for satisfying both user and provider needs. However, the strategy of task offloading to fog node in constraints of energy and latency is still an open issue. Several research works have tackled the resource scheduling problem in the field of VFC; however, the recent studies have not carefully addressed the transmission path to the destination node, nor has it considered the energy consumption of vehicles. This paper aims to optimize the task offloading process in the VFC system in terms of latency and energy objectives while taking the deadline constraint into considerations by adopting a Multi-Objective Evolutionary Algorithm (MOEA). Four different execution/transmission models are proposed where vehicle resources are utilized for tasks execution and transmission, and the well-known Dijkstra's algorithm is adopted to find the minimum path between each two nodes. The simulation results show that the models which involve the vehicles in the transmission process have reduced the latency and the total energy for the VFC system significantly in comparison with other models and the current state of the art methods.
  • An Evolutionary Algorithm for Task scheduling Problem in the Cloud-Fog environment
    Mohammed Najm Abdulredha, Bara’a A. Attea, Adnan Jumaa Jabir
    Journal of Physics Conference Series, 2021
    The rapid and enormous growth of the Internet of Things, as well as its widespread adoption, has resulted in the production of massive quantities of data that must be processed and sent to the cloud, but the delay in processing the data and the time it takes to send it to the cloud has resulted in the emergence of fog, a new generation of cloud in which the fog serves as an extension of cloud services at the edge of the network, reducing latency and traffic. The distribution of computational resources to minimize makespan and running costs is one of the disadvantages of fog computing. This paper provides a new approach for improving the task scheduling problem in a Cloud-Fog environment in terms of execution time(makespan) and operating costs for Bag-of-Tasks applications. A task scheduling evolutionary algorithm has been proposed. A single custom representation of the problem and a uniform intersection are built for the proposed algorithm. Furthermore, the individual initialization and perturbation operators (crossover and mutation) were created to resolve the inapplicability of any solution found or reached by the proposed evolutionary algorithm. The proposed ETS (Evolutionary Task Scheduling algorithm) algorithm was evaluated on 11 datasets of varying size in a number of tasks. The ETS outperformed the Bee Life (BLA), Modified Particle Swarm (MPSO), and RR algorithms in terms of Makespan and operating costs, according to the results of the experiments.
  • A Light Weight Multi-Objective Task Offloading Optimization for Vehicular Fog Computing
    Sura Abdullah, Adnan Jabir
    Iraqi Journal for Electrical and Electronic Engineering, 2021
    Most Internet of Vehicles (IoV) applications are delay-sensitive and require resources for data storage and tasks processing, which is very difficult to afford by vehicles. Such tasks are often offloaded to more powerful entities, like cloud and fog servers. Fog computing is decentralized infrastructure located between data source and cloud, supplies several benefits that make it a non-frivolous extension of the cloud. The high volume data which is generated by vehicles’ sensors and also the limited computation capabilities of vehicles have imposed several challenges on VANETs systems. Therefore, VANETs is integrated with fog computing to form a paradigm namely Vehicular Fog Computing (VFC) which provide low-latency services to mobile vehicles. Several studies have tackled the task offloading problem in the VFC field. However, recent studies have not carefully addressed the transmission path to the destination node and did not consider the energy consumption of vehicles. This paper aims to optimize the task offloading process in the VFC system in terms of latency and energy objectives under deadline constraint by adopting a Multi-Objective Evolutionary Algorithm (MOEA). Road Side Units (RSUs) x-Vehicles Mutli-Objective Computation offloading method (RxV-MOC) is proposed, where an elite of vehicles are utilized as fog nodes for tasks execution and all vehicles in the system are utilized for tasks transmission. The well-known Dijkstra's algorithm is adopted to find the minimum path between each two nodes. The simulation results show that the RxV-MOC has reduced significantly the energy consumption and latency for the VFC system in comparison with First-Fit algorithm, Best-Fit algorithm, and the MOC method.

  • Spin-image descriptors for text-independent speaker recognition
    Suhaila N. Mohammed, Adnan J. Jabir, Zaid Ali Abbas
    Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing, 2020
    Building a system to identify individuals through their speech recording can find its application in diverse areas, such as telephone shopping, voice mail and security control. However, building such systems is a tricky task because of the vast range of differences in the human voice. Thus, selecting strong features becomes very crucial for the recognition system. Therefore, a speaker recognition system based on new spin-image descriptors (SISR) is proposed in this paper. In the proposed system, circular windows (spins) are extracted from the frequency domain of the spectrogram image of the sound, and then a run length matrix is built for each spin, to work as a base for feature extraction tasks. Five different descriptors are generated from the run length matrix within each spin and the final feature vector is then used to populate a deep belief network for classification purpose. The proposed SISR system is evaluated using the English language Speech Database for Speaker Recognition (ELSDSR) database. The experimental results were achieved with 96.46 accuracy; showing that the proposed SISR system outperforms those reported in the related current research work in terms of recognition accuracy.
  • Bulk binding approach for PMIPv6 protocol to reduce handoff latency in IoT
    Adnan J. Jabir
    International Journal of Electrical and Computer Engineering, 2019
    <p>Mobility management protocols are very essential in the new research area of Internet of Things (IoT) as the static attributes of nodes are no longer dominant in the current environment. Proxy MIPv6 (PMIPv6) protocol is a network-based mobility management protocol, where the mobility process is relied on the network entities, named, Mobile Access Gateways (MAGs) and Local Mobility Anchor (LMA). PMIPv6 is considered as the most suitable mobility protocol for WSN as it relieves the sensor nodes from participating in the mobility signaling. However, in PMIPv6, a separate signaling is required for each mobile node (MN) registration, which may increase the network signaling overhead and lead to increase the total handoff latency. The bulk binding approaches were used to enhance the mobility signaling for MNs which are moving together from one MAG to another by exchanging a single bulk binding update message. However, in some cases there might be several MNs move at the same time but among different MAGs. In this paper, a bulk registration scheme based on the clustered sensor PMIPv6 architecture is proposed to reduce the mobility signaling cost by creating a single bulk message for all MNs attached to the cluster. Our mathematical results show that the proposed bulk scheme enhances the PMIPv6 performance by reducing the total handoff latency.</p>
