SafeBrowz Threat Research
The detection and research team behind SafeBrowz. We analyse phishing, scams and crypto wallet drainers every day, and every guide on this site is written from what our engine actually sees, not rewritten from someone else's article.
What we do
SafeBrowz Threat Research maintains the detection engine behind the SafeBrowz extension and Android app. We track a 550+ brand impersonation database, analyse new phishing and crypto-drainer campaigns as they appear, and build a three-layer detection model: on-device pattern checks, threat-intelligence lookups, and AI content analysis that reads a page the way a person would, in over 100 languages.
How we write
Every guide is grounded in real detection work. When we explain a scam, the red flags, lookalike domains and remediation steps come from sites our engine has scanned and classified, paired with primary authority sources such as the FBI IC3, FTC, CISA and Chainalysis. We cite those sources directly and link to the official reporting channels for each region.
What we cover
- Phishing and credential theft, brand impersonation, and lookalike or typosquatted domains.
- Crypto wallet drainers, fake dApps, seed-phrase theft, and drainer-kit JavaScript.
- Smishing: fake toll, parcel, bank and government text scams.
- Tech-support, refund, investment and recovery frauds.
Our standard
SafeBrowz launched in 2026. We are a focused specialist, not a broad antivirus suite, and we say so plainly. Our depth is in one area: stopping phishing, scams and wallet drainers before a page loads. Detection signatures are derived from threat-intelligence research and our own brand database, not from user browsing data. SafeBrowz does not store per-user browsing history.
