Overview
Website owner validation status and related score from the CCB.
For every website you visit, the Safeonweb Browser Extension shows you if the owner has been validated (Green) or not (Amber). Websites without a validated owner (Amber) should be suited for reading only. To share personal and sensitive information you can expect the owner of the web site to be validated (Green). If a hacker puts malicious content on a website with a validated owner, the validation status will change to Amber or Red directly after the first notification. Known malicious or insecure websites are marked as Red. The Extension allocates a score: - Green (OK): the website owner has an Extended Validation Certificate issued by a Certificate Authority or the site owner is registered on atwork.safeonweb.be. Therefore: o It should be OK to continue surfing on this website. o It should be OK to share data on this website. - Amber (!): the website owner has an Organisation Validation Certificate, or a Domain Validation Certificate issued by a Certificate Authority, and the website is not registered on atwork.safeonweb.be Therefore: o It should be OK to continue surfing on this website. o If any doubts, refrain from sharing data on this website. - Red (X): the website lacks basic security features or is known as malicious. The website owner has no Certificate and therefore has not been validated. Therefore: o We advise against browsing this website and sharing any data. /!\ The Safeonweb Browser Extension does NOT replace your anti-virus. It does NOT check if a virus is present on your computer. The Extension does NOT check website contents or what is exchanged with the website. /!\ Please ensure to always use the last version of the Extension published. /!\ All versions prior to 1.8.2 are decommissioned and will no longer work. /!\ The Centre for Cybersecurity Belgium (CCB) is the national authority for cybersecurity in Belgium (https://ccb.belgium.be/). One of the CCB’s mission is to make Belgium one of the most cybersecure countries in Europe.
