Protect Yourself with Microsoft Defender Browser Protection

Microsoft Defender Browser Protection is a free extension available on Chrome that provides real-time protection against online threats. The extension helps you stay safe by checking URLs against a constantly updated list of malicious sources. If the link you clicked on is malicious, the extension will redirect you to a red warning screen, preventing you from accessing the harmful website.

This extension is especially helpful in protecting you against phishing sites and malware while browsing the internet. It also includes a "Report Suspicious Site" feature that allows you to report any suspicious websites you come across, further contributing to the extension's database of harmful URLs. Microsoft Defender Browser Protection is easy to install and use, and it comes with Group Policy controls. Currently, it is only available in the United States.

In Softonic we scan all the files hosted on our platform to assess and avoid any potential harm for your device. Our team performs checks each time a new file is uploaded and periodically reviews files to confirm or update their status. This comprehensive process allows us to set a status for any downloadable file as follows:

Clean

It’s extremely likely that this software program is clean.

What does this mean?

We have scanned the file and URLs associated with this software program in more than 50 of the world's leading antivirus services; no possible threat has been detected.

Warning

This software program is potentially malicious or may contain unwanted bundled software.

Why is the software program still available?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false positives.

What is a false positive?

It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program.

We’d like to highlight that from time to time, we may miss a potentially malicious software program. To continue promising you a malware-free catalog of programs and apps, our team has integrated a Report Software feature in every catalog page that loops your feedback back to us.

Flag any particular issues you may encounter and Softonic will address those concerns as soon as possible.
