## 💡 Why the Name?
- **Phish** → From *phishing*, the cyberattack technique of tricking people into giving up sensitive information.
- **Eye** → Symbolizing **vigilance** and **observation**, because to stop phishing, we must first *see it clearly*.
Together: **PhishEye** means *“the watchful eye against phishing threats.”*

## 🛡️ Problem in Ethiopia
Ethiopia is experiencing rapid internet adoption — but with that growth comes risk:
- Rising phishing attacks on social media, email, and banking platforms.
- Low digital literacy in some communities makes people more vulnerable.
- Few locally developed tools are available for training and awareness.
PhishEye Ethiopia is our contribution to filling this gap.

## ⚙️ How It Works
1. **User Interaction** – A visitor clicks a suspicious link or button.
2. **Data Logging** – PhishEye records:
- IP address
- Browser user agent
- HTTP headers
- Timestamp of the visit
3. **Storage** – Data is stored in MongoDB for later analysis.
4. **Redirection** – The user is redirected to a safe page (e.g., Google).
**Important:** This tool is meant for **training and research purposes only**. Misuse is strictly discouraged.
