Features & Capabilities

PhishGuard is a way for you to make sure you know what you're clicking on!

This extension aims to prevent email phishing attacks by telling you where links really lead. The way it works if it detects a clickable link and the location it leads to is somewhere different from what is advertised, it will highlight it red, bold it, and when you hover over the link, it will tell you where it really leads!

Currently, the extension supports both gmail and outlook/hotmail.

Is PhishGuard 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.

PhishGuard 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.

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