Checks public website URLs for phishing and scam risk indicators without collecting page content or form data. Aegis Browser Protection — Think Before You Trust Aegis Browser Protection helps you identify phishing, scams, suspicious links, and potentially unsafe websites before you take action. When you visit a supported website, Aegis analyzes its URL using security signals, Google Web Risk intelligence, and URL structure analysis. Full Scan can also inspect redirects and use AI-assisted analysis to investigate potential threats. When suspicious activity is detected, Aegis provides clear warnings, explains the available evidence, and recommends practical steps to help you stay protected. Key Features • Automatic Website Protection — Checks supported websites as you browse. • Fast Scan — Quickly evaluates URL structure and available threat intelligence. • Full Scan — Provides deeper investigation with redirect checks and AI-assisted analysis when available. • Phishing & Scam Detection — Identifies known threats and suspicious website characteristics. • Clear Security Explanations — Understand why a website has been flagged and what to do next. • Browser Warnings — Receive warnings when higher-risk websites are detected. • Temporary Exceptions — Continue past a warning for 30 minutes when you choose. • Trusted Sites — Manage trusted website preferences locally in your browser. • Private Aegis Dashboard — Optionally connect your Aegis account to save security events. Only threats and warnings are saved by default. Privacy & Transparency Aegis checks the URL of the website you're visiting, which can include its path and query parameters. Before sending a URL to the Aegis protection service, the extension removes URL credentials and fragments and redacts recognized sensitive token values. Not every sensitive value can be identified automatically. Aegis does not read passwords, OTPs, payment card details, cookies, form values, or full webpage content. You can pause automatic website checks from the extension's settings. Protection You Can Understand Aegis distinguishes between identified threats, suspicious indicators, and checks that could not be fully verified. A website with no known high-risk indicators is not necessarily safe. Aegis is designed to support informed decisions, not replace your judgment. Before you click, pay, reply, or trust — ask Aegis.
