Features & Capabilities

Unlike the browser's default search provider addition, this extension offers a responsive theme icon that adapts beautifully to both light and dark modes, enhancing the user interface and visual consistency. The extension's smart icon leverages context properties, ensuring a polished appearance across various themes, which requires minor customization via userChrome.css.

By utilizing a direct search URL and suggest API, the Brave OpenSearch Engine enables fast and relevant search results while maintaining privacy standards. This lightweight tool is perfect for users seeking an optimized search experience within their Chrome browser, merging functionality with aesthetic adaptability.

Is Brave OpenSearch Engine 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.

Brave OpenSearch Engine requires very minimum permissions.

Risk impact analysis details

High Can change search providers, which could redirect searches to malicious sites, posing moderate risk.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Brave OpenSearch Engine is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
