HARD is watching this browser.

It’s already on. Here’s what it looks out for, and what it leaves alone.

• Fake sites

  Pages pretending to be your bank, Google, Microsoft or Apple are stopped before they load.

• Your passwords

  Sign in to Google, Microsoft or Apple once. If that password is ever typed on a fake, HARD clears it.

• Big payments

  On your bank, a large payment or a new payee waits a moment, with the questions scammers hope you won’t ask.

• Other extensions

  Every add-on in this browser is checked, and HARD tells you about the risky ones.

• Sign-ins with only a password

  If Google or Microsoft lets you in without a code, HARD suggests turning on a second step.

HARD checks suspicious addresses against public lists of scam sites. It never reads your pages, never keeps your passwords, and sends nothing about you to HARD.

Pin HARD next to the address bar.

Then it’s one click away when a site looks odd, and you’ll see a number on it when it has stopped something.

When should HARD step in?

On your bank, HARD pauses big payments and every new payee for a moment, so there’s time to think. This page is optional; the amount below is a sensible start.

You’re set.

There’s nothing else to do. HARD stays quiet until something is wrong, then it steps in.

Change any of this from the HARD button next to the address bar.
