Browsing protection helps you evaluate the safety of web sites you visit and prevents you from unintentionally accessing harmful web sites.
Browsing protection shows you safety ratings for web sites listed on search engine results. By identifying web sites that contain security threats, such as malware (viruses, worms, trojans) and phishing, browsing protection’s safety ratings help you avoid the latest Internet threats that are not yet recognized by traditional antivirus programs.
The safety ratings are based on information from several sources, such as F-Secure malware analysts and F-Secure partners.
Browsing protection works with the Safari, Firefox, and Chrome web browsers.
