18.1.1. Bitdefender protection in the web browser
Bitdefender integrates directly through an intuitive and easy-to-use toolbar into the
following web browsers:
● Internet Explorer
● Mozilla Firefox
● Google Chrome
● Safari
● Opera
The Bitdefender toolbar is not your typical browser toolbar. The only thing it ads to
your browser is a small dragger at the top of every web page. Click it to see
the toolbar.
The Bitdefender toolbar contains the following elements:
Page Rating
Depending on how Bitdefender classifies the web page you are currently viewing,
one of the following ratings is displayed on the left side of the toolbar:
● The message "Page not safe" appears on a red background - you should leave
the web page immediately. To find out more about this threat, click the +
symbol on the page rating.
● The message "Caution is advised" appears on an orange background - this
web page may contain dangerous content. Exercise caution if you decide to
visit it.
● The message "This page is safe" appears on a green background - this is a
safe page to visit.
Sandbox
Click to launch the browser in a Bitdefender-provided environment, isolating
it from the operating system. This prevents browser-based threats from
exploiting browser vulnerabilities to gain control of your system. Use Sandbox
when visiting web pages you suspect may contain malware.
Browser windows opened in Sandbox will be easily recognizable through their
modified outline and Sandbox icon added at the center of the title bar.
Note
Sandbox is not available on computers running Windows XP.
