SocialSec

This is the second functional build of our project.
SocialSec is a Chrome extension designed to keep you safe from social engineering attacks by comparing the information on your social media accounts to your passwords. It creates a custom word list based on your public profile information and notifies you if it detects a match. SocialSec currently supports Facebook and is an Arizona State University Capstone project.
