Bitdefender security company released the Bitdefender TrafficLight extension for the Firefox browser. It is a security extension that comes free and is the first Bitdefender developed with the WebExtensions system.
It brings new ones functions, compared to the previous version.
The BitDefender TrafficLight for Firefox extension provides free security alerts on the websites you visit, but also on the websites that appear on supported search engines. The extension simply informs you, and will not prevent you from visiting pages that it describes as dangerous.
The extension works autonomously, ie you should not use any other Bitdefender security application.
It will show a green icon for safe pages and a red icon for potentially malicious or dangerous pages. The extension checks every page for malware software, phishing or spam and will report its findings to you.
Bitdefender TrafficLight will show you the security icons in supported browsers. It only works on some search services, such as: Google, Yahoo Search, DuckDuckGo and Bing, while it doesn't work on Startpage, Yandex, or Baidu for now at least.
The Bitdefender extension hosts a settings page, from where you can enable or disable security features.
