Features & Capabilities

VerifiedLink protects users from deceptive hyperlinks.

A common phishing technique is to display a trusted domain name as the visible link text while directing the user to a completely different website.

Example:

Displayed link text: paypal.com

Actual destination: malicious-site.com

VerifiedLink detects these mismatches and warns the user before navigation.

How it works

When a webpage displays a link that appears to be a domain name, VerifiedLink compares the visible text with the actual destination domain.

If they do not match, the link is highlighted and a warning dialog appears before navigation.

Key Features

• Detects domain mismatches in hyperlinks • Highlights suspicious links • Warns users before navigating • Lightweight and fast • No tracking • No data collection • No accounts required

Privacy

VerifiedLink performs all analysis locally in the browser.

No data is transmitted anywhere.

No browsing history is collected.

No personal information is stored.

Is VerifiedLink 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.

VerifiedLink requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details

Critical Allows access to all websites, posing a significant security risk as it can monitor and modify data from any visited site.

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.

VerifiedLink is recently added, and hasn't been around long enough for us to gather enough data to accurately assess its risk level.
