Introducing our innovative extension designed to enhance your online security: the URL Character Guard Add-on. In today's digital landscape, where cyber threats lurk around every corner, safeguarding your online activities is paramount. One particularly insidious tactic employed by cybercriminals involves the use of Cyrillic characters in website URLs to deceive unsuspecting users.
Consider this scenario: you intend to visit www.facebook.com, a familiar and trusted platform. However, a slight alteration in the URL leads you to www.facҽbook.com, with a Cyrillic "ҽ" replacing the standard "e".

By proactively filtering out potentially harmful URLs, it provides an added layer of defense against phishing scams and other online threats.
Stay one step ahead of cybercriminals and safeguard your digital identity by integrating this powerful protective measure into your browsing experience. With the URL Character Guard Add-on, you can browse the web with confidence, knowing that your safety is our top priority.
