Features & Capabilities

An NewChain Wallet in your Browser NewMask is an extension for accessing NewChain enabled distributed applications, or "Dapps" in your browser!

The extension injects the NewChain web3 API into every website's javascript context, so that dapps can read from the blockchain.

NewMask also lets the user create and manage their own identities (via private keys, local client wallet and hardware wallets), so when a Dapp wants to perform a transaction and write to the blockchain, the user gets a secure interface to review the transaction, before approving or rejecting it.

Because it adds functionality to the normal browser context, NewMask requires the permission to read and write to any webpage. You can always "view the source" of NewMask the way you do any Chrome extension, or view the source code on Github: https://github.com/newswap/newmask-extension

Is NewMask 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.

NewMask requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

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.

NewMask may not be trust-worthy. Avoid installing if possible unless you really trust this publisher.
