About WebGuard by Elevven11
WebGuard checks the page you are on for the signs of phishing, and warns you
before you hand sensitive information to a site that should not have it.
Every check runs on your device. There is no account, no subscription, no
analytics and no server. Online checks are off by default, and with them off
WebGuard makes no network requests at all.
WHAT IT CHECKS
Website security — HTTPS, URL structure, redirect parameters, credentials
embedded in an address, unusual ports, encoded addresses and risky file types.
Phishing — brand impersonation across 34 commonly imitated services,
typosquatting, homograph and mixed-script characters, brand names hidden in
subdomains, and a page title that disagrees with its domain.
Domains — registered-domain extraction, raw IP addresses used as hosts,
Punycode, and subdomains dressed up to look like domains.
Forms — login and payment form detection, passwords sent over http, and forms
that post to a different domain than the one you are on.
Passwords — strength, common passwords and character substitutions, keyboard
runs and sequences, and a breach check that never transmits your password.
Sensitive data — API keys, tokens, JWTs, private keys, database connection
strings, card numbers checked with Luhn, IBANs and crypto addresses, in text
you select.
Privacy — 124 known trackers, third-party requests, cookies and local storage.
Threat lists — known malicious and phishing addresses, matched on your device
against downloaded hash prefixes.
HOW IT REPORTS
Low Risk, Suspicious, High Risk or Unknown. Never "safe".
Only High Risk interrupts you. Suspicious puts a badge on the toolbar icon and
waits to be asked. No single weak observation can produce a warning: risk is the
sum of several signals, each scaled by how confident the check is, because a
warning you learn to click through protects nobody.
A blocklist miss is not evidence of safety, so threat-list coverage is reported
separately from the verdict. "Checked against current lists and not listed",
"no lists downloaded" and "lists out of date" are three different answers, and
WebGuard will not present the last two as a clean result.
PRIVACY
Password fields are never read. The input monitor skips them entirely.
Passwords are never transmitted. The breach check hashes the password on your
device and sends the first five characters of that hash, which returns a bucket
of several hundred candidates to compare locally. The service cannot learn your
password, or even its full hash.
Secrets are never stored. The sensitive-data scanner returns an offset and a
mask, never the matched value, so nothing downstream of it can display, keep or
send a credential even by accident.
The addresses you visit are never sent. Threat lists are downloaded and matched
on your device. The only request in the product derived from a page carries four
bytes of a hash, which a great many addresses share.
History is off by default, and a record holds only a hostname, a verdict, a
score and a time. Pages you merely visit are never recorded.
Settings has a reset that clears every piece of local data.
WHAT WEBGUARD IS NOT
Not an antivirus, not a password manager, and not a guarantee. It helps you make
a safer decision with better information. It cannot promise a site is safe, and
it does not replace security software.
KEYBOARD
Ctrl+Shift+W checks the current website and Ctrl+Shift+U scans selected text for
sensitive data. Both can be changed at chrome://extensions/shortcuts.
Free, and staying free. WebGuard carries one house advertisement for the
studio's own work, at the foot of the popup, labelled "Ad", served from a list
that ships inside the extension: opening the popup makes no request and tells
nobody it was opened. One click turns it off permanently.
