## Description

Sentinel is a browser security extension designed to help protect users from phishing attacks, scams, malware distribution sites, fake login pages, and other online threats.

Unlike traditional blocklists, Sentinel analyzes websites in real time using multiple security indicators to identify suspicious behavior and potentially dangerous content. The extension can detect common threat patterns such as credential theft attempts, deceptive login forms, malicious redirects, suspicious downloads, and other indicators associated with fraudulent or harmful websites.

Key Features:

• Real-time website analysis
• Phishing and scam detection
• Malicious download detection
• Suspicious redirect identification
• Privacy-focused design
• Lightweight and fast scanning
• Clear explanations for security warnings
• Works across a wide range of websites

Sentinel is designed to act as a first line of defense while browsing the web. Instead of relying solely on static blocklists, it evaluates websites dynamically to help identify new and emerging threats.

The project is continuously improved through ongoing research and threat intelligence to provide better protection against evolving online attacks.
Local-first phishing, scam and malware risk detection with optional ATIN cloud intelligence.
Please note: No security solution can guarantee 100% protection. Sentinel should be used alongside good security practices and up-to-date antivirus software.
