Norton device security includes Safe Web to analyze sites when you browse using Firefox, Safari, or Chrome. It ranks site security and alerts you if it detects fraudulent or phishing sites. Safe Web helps protect you from cybercriminals who set up fake sites, such as illegitimate shopping sites, in order to get you to enter financial or personal information

Enable and configure Safe Web options

You can enable and configure Safe Web options only on Mac OS X 10.9 or earlier versions.

  1. Start Norton.

    If you see the My Norton window, next to Device Security, click Open.

  3. On the left pane, click Safe Web, and make sure the Safe Web switch on.

    • Show a warning when visiting a harmful website.
    • Block harmful websites.
    • Enable Phishing Protection to analyze the security level of the website you visit.
    • Submit full URL when a suspicious website is detected to send the site URL to Norton for analysis.
