Extension Metadata

About this extension
SecureWatch is a lightweight, in-browser security scanner that helps you instantly assess the safety of any website you visit.

With one click, SecureWatch scans the current web page and provides a clear Security Score (0-100) based on real-time checks and local heuristic analysis.

Key Features:

Instant Security Score: Get an immediate, easy-to-understand score for any URL.

SSL/TLS Analysis: Identify websites not using HTTPS or with insecure protocols.

Phishing & Typosquatting Detection: Flags URLs that mimic popular brands or use suspicious top-level domains.

Threat Log: Automatically records suspicious sites you visit so you can review them later.

Insecure Connection Warnings: Blocks high-risk sites (like direct IP address URLs) and warns you before you proceed.

Quick Access: Scan the current tab via the toolbar icon or use the keyboard shortcut (Ctrl+Shift+Q).

How it works:
The extension runs a fast local check (HTTP protocol, URL structure, admin paths, known phishing patterns) and pairs it with our cloud-based API for a comprehensive report. You can also manually enter any URL to scan.

SecureWatch is designed to be non-intrusive. It only runs when you click the scan button or when it encounters a highly suspicious site, giving you peace of mind while you browse.
