Norton Safe Search Review
0Norton safe search, a security software from Norton It lets Internet users know if the websites they’re planning to visit are safe or not. This is crucial since almost every day, there are reports of identity thefts and financial assets being taken from computers through ransomware and malware that was downloaded from malicious websites.
Norton utilizes a system of feedback from users to check the Web and allow users to examine the way websites function and whether or not anything suspicious happens when they visit those sites. In addition, site owners can submit their sites for review and if they meet certain standards, they can receive a Norton Secured Seal, which informs users that the site is safe and reliable.
With the Norton Safe Search extension for Google Chrome, you can get safety ratings added on top of all search results in the browser. This provides you with the best protection from identity theft, phishing websites, and online virus. The extension is lightweight and doesn’t cause any slowdown to your computer.
One major issue is that Norton’s rating is not shown in the results for video, image and news searches. This is a major oversight given the importance of these results to the user’s experience. It would be great to see the Norton ratings displayed alongside results from ad search since they are typically plagued with malware or phishing scams. The extension is still worth a look to stay away from the risks associated with online shopping and browsing.
