Bitdefender TrafficLight adds a strong and non-intrusive layer of security to your browsing experience.

TrafficLight is taking the security-while-browsing concept where it belongs: in the browser. This extension will add a strong layer of security over your browsing experience without inducing speed penalties or system resource consumption. Part of the processing is done in the cloud with some intelligent small engines that make various checks on pages you're visiting enabling you to have top notch antiphishing and antimalware protection.

Features:

Real Time: TrafficLight scans the pages you visit for malware and phishing attempts each and every time you access them to avoid the threat of legitimate but recently compromised websites.

Precise: TrafficLight won't block an entire website if just some pages within are malicious. Only the potentially harmful elements are blocked, leaving you free to view the rest of the site if you so choose.

Unintrusive: TrafficLight does not add a toolbar to your already-cluttered browser interface. Its interface remains invisible until your input is needed or it's called up with a simple mouse gesture.

Search Results: TrafficLight flags malware and fraudulent websites in search results.

Updated 2022:

Fast support, terrible extension. Doesn't work to prevent malware from malicious sites.

They don't tell you that you need to have Bitdefender installed. It's not listed here in the extension description.

Additionally, I tested this extension with eicar malware test site. The extension showed that the site was malicious a few seconds later.

What should've happened is this extension is supposed to block the attack BEFORE it gets into my system. In other words, I had already been "infected" even though Trafficlight says it was blocked, but it wasn't.

Extension has a list of sites (which is largely based on Google's list) and then flags or blocks them.
You can't block domains, only individual websites.

For instance domain *.xyz is a malicious domain but Trafficlight does not give the user the option to block it. It's a fairly new domain and Bitdefender Trafficlight fails to detect and block this domain.

In summary, this extension is like car laser radar detectors . Only AFTER you are hit is there a reaction, sometimes not at all. Not recommended. Yet foolish and gullible people think it works otherwise. Uninstalled.

Looking at the browser's task manager, memory usage is low immediately after startup, but more than doubles after half a day of use. I have a feeling this is a problem with the extension, because there are extensions that do not increase memory usage.

这个浏览器安全插件非常好用,而且易用。在CHROME内核的浏览器上,它能正常工作,不像卡巴的插件,一直灰色无法工作,何况我还是安装的收费正版KIS,搭配这个BD的插件在vivald浏览器上,安全性得到进一步提升!
