Microsoft launches Windows Defender extension for Chrome
- Thread starter Newsfeed
- Start date
“Microsoft has released its Windows Defender Browser Protection extension for Google Chrome, which protects users against online threats.
The real-time protection from Microsoft guards against phishing emails and websites designed to trick users into downloading and installing malicious software that can harm their PC.
If you click a malicious link in an email or navigate to a malicious site, Windows Defender Browser Protection will check it against a dynamic list of malicious URLs known to Microsoft.
If the malicious link matches one on the list, Windows Defender Browser Protection will show a red warning screen, letting you know that the web page is harmful.
It will then give users a path back to safety with one click.”

Implying...? It's just a chrome add-on. Like any add-on, use it, don't use it, up to you.
