About Gursoft Web Security
Gursoft Web Security helps protect Chrome users from known malware, hacked and phishing websites by checking visited domains against saved local threat lists.
The extension combines several public protection sources into one local database and keeps them updated automatically. When a website matches the saved protection list, Gursoft Web Security blocks the page and shows a clear red warning screen with the matched domain and blocked URL.

How it works
Gursoft Web Security saves known risky domains locally in the browser. When you open a website, the extension compares the current domain with the saved local protection database. If a match is found, the website is blocked and a warning page is shown.
The extension does not claim to replace a full antivirus product. It is a browser-level website protection helper focused on known dangerous domains and phishing URLs.
Protection sources
Gursoft Web Security can use public malware, hacked-site, phishing and DNS blocklist sources. These lists are downloaded by the extension and stored locally for website checks.
Privacy
Gursoft Web Security is designed to work locally in the browser. It does not require an account and does not ask users to submit personal information. The extension checks website domains against saved protection lists and downloads updated public list files when needed.
Important note
No security tool can detect every dangerous website. Always be careful with unknown links, downloads, login forms and payment pages.
