Protection against the next generation of threats

Surface Guard analyzes the websites and threats you encounter to help identify attacks, including highly targeted ones designed specifically to trick you.

Phishing

Catches credential-stealing pages, including brand-new kits no signature has seen.

Scareware

Blocks fake alerts and pressure tactics built to panic you into acting.

Impersonation

Flags sites and messages pretending to be brands, services, or people you trust.

AI-Generated Attacks

Detects convincing, personalized scams that attackers now build with AI.

It learns and adapts as threats evolve

As Surface Guard protects you, it learns from what it sees and adapts over time, helping it recognize new attack techniques as they emerge. The web is changing quickly, and attackers are using AI to create more convincing scams than ever. Surface Guard gives your browser a security layer that learns with them.
