Features & Capabilities

Imagine a world where every link clicked opens with peace of mind, not with a suspicion of phishing. Users can verify the authenticity of a website with a single click.

authifyNow is an early proof-of-concept on how a centralized database and public API can empower users to instantly verify the ownership of a website, thus protecting them from impersonation scams. A win-win solution for both users and brands.

authifyNow doesn't show ads and doesn't send user's data anywhere. It is fully open-source https://github.com/authifyWeb/authifyNow

Is authifyNow Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

authifyNow requires very minimum permissions.
