What is SafeToOpen Online Security?

SafeToOpen Online security browser extension is like having your own security expert witness detect suspicious web pages and indicators. Yet it effectively saves you the cost of hiring a professional and upgrading your online security systems. You'll receive an instant warning if a web page you visit is risky or safe.

What is a phishing web page?

Commonly called a "spoofed" site, a phishing webpage tries to steal your account password or other confidential information, particularly financial details. It tricks you into believing you're visiting a legitimate website.

Phishing websites often ask for your:
• Credit card information
• Internet banking details
• Personal information and documents, including driver's license and passport
• Usernames or passwords for your online accounts, including social media accounts

Be careful!
Phishing emails can look and feel legitimate. They use the same design and logos as the company or organization they're pretending to be and the same kind of language.

Most phishing web pages impersonate:
• Banks
• Social media sites
• Government agencies
• Online game sites

Free for personal use

While we don't charge our users to use SafeToOpen Online Security browser extension for their personal use, we still generate revenue by detecting unsafe web pages targeting our customers' brands and reporting them to the targeted businesses.

For more clarification, let's review the following example:
Let's assume there is a bank called ABC in your country. Cybercriminals do not send phishing links impersonating the login page of the bank ABC to the bank staff members because the security team in bank ABC will quickly take the malicious website down. Instead, the cybercriminals would send their emails containing phishing links to the customer of the bank ABC (i.e., citizens of your country) to steal their money.

SafeToOpen Online Security detects these unsafe links, prevents you from entering your information in the unsafe web pages, reports the detected link to bank ABC and charges them for the detection of the phishing web page. 

Designed with privacy in mind

SafeToOpen Online Security is built to ensure you have concrete protection and privacy online. Our browser extension analyzes web pages that only request your sensitive information, such as passwords, social security numbers, and bank account details in links and HTML attachments. SafeToOpen doesn't analyze the most commonly used websites such as Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, Google, Gmail, and YouTube.

With us, we don't track your browser activity unless a suspicious web page is detected. Upon detecting a suspicious web page, SafeToOpen Online Security collects and sends the following information for further analysis and protection of others. It collects: 

● Your public IP address
● Web browser name and version
● Your operating system name
● The suspicious URL (used for in-depth analysis)

To detect and protect from new malicious web pages, SafeToOpen Online Security asks your permission to send the visible visual elements of the suspicious page to our servers. SafeToOpen never sends sensitive information from your web browsing activities to our servers. 

Please read our privacy page for more information.
