Bitdefender TrafficLight adds a strong and non-intrusive layer of security to your browsing experience.
TrafficLight Chrome Extension: Secure Browsing Experience
TrafficLight is a Chrome extension that provides a robust layer of security for your browsing experience. Operating in the cloud, it assesses each webpage you visit, checking for malware and phishing attempts in real time. However, TrafficLight does so unobtrusively, without adding unnecessary toolbars or slowing your system. It precisely blocks harmful elements, allowing you to safely view the rest of the website. Additionally, TrafficLight provides security markers in search results, flagging potential fraudulent or malicious websites.
