This document describes techniques for using features extracted from a URL to detect a malicious URL and categorize the malicious URL as one of a phishing URL, a spamming URL, a malware URL or a multi-type attack URL. The techniques employ one or more machine learning algorithms to train classification models using a set of training data which includes a known set of benign URLs and a known set of malicious URLs. The classification models are then employed to detect and/or categorize a malicious URL.
