BEsafe - Validating URLs and Domains with the aid of Indicator of Compromise

The advancement of information technology has stimulated the conversion of physical interactions to online activities, especially during the Covid-19 pandemic. Thus, users' awareness and cyber hygiene need to be emphasized when they are involved in the cyber world. A browser extension named “BEsafe” is developed to validate the websites and promote a safe browsing environment. It prevents users from falling prey to network-based attacks and raises their security awareness. To ensure users' privacy, the permissions needed for BEsafe are listed on the permission tab. Moreover, BEsafe will not be working on Incognito mode by default to promise that the private mode leaves no tracks. However, the user can still enable the extension to be functioning on Incognito mode by navigating to the Extension Details and turning on the relevant toggle.
