Threat Detector

A lightweight extension that detects threats and vulnerabilities on websites which allows you to keep your data safe and secure

Threat Detector is a lightweight Chrome extension that helps you stay safe online by identifying potential security threats and vulnerabilities on websites you visit.

What It Does
Threat Detector scans websites in real-time and alerts you to possible security risks such as:

Suspicious scripts that might steal your data
Hidden keyloggers that could record what you type
Malicious domains that your browser is connecting to
Unencrypted connections on secure sites
Attempts to access your camera or microphone
Hidden forms collecting sensitive information
Third-party trackers monitoring your activity
Why You Should Install It
Instant Security Awareness: Get an immediate visual indicator of any website's threat level with the danger scale that appears when you visit a site.

Simple Threat Mitigation: Fix detected threats with a single click using the "Fix All" button in the popup interface.

Privacy-Focused: All scanning happens locally on your device - no data is transmitted to external servers, protecting your privacy.

Educational Tool: Learn about different types of web threats through detailed explanations of each detected issue.

Lightweight & Non-Intrusive: Runs efficiently in the background without slowing down your browsing experience.

Persistent Protection: Remember sites you've fixed previously and maintain protection across visits.

How It Works
When you visit a website, Threat Detector automatically scans for potential threats and displays a color-coded danger bar. Click the extension icon to see detailed information about any detected issues and use the "Fix All" button to mitigate them.

The extension categorizes sites into three security levels:

Safe: Low danger score, minimal security concerns
Moderate: Some potential security issues, but not critical
Dangerous: Serious security concerns detected, use caution
All of this is done while respecting your privacy - all data processing happens locally, and you can clear all stored data at any time through the privacy-policy.html page
