Avast Passwords Extension For Chrome Browser On A Mac

After you download the crx file for Avast Passwords 2.0.4246, open Chrome's extensions page (chrome://extensions/ or find by Chrome menu icon > More tools > Extensions), and then drag-and-drop the *.crx file to the extensions page to install it. Apr 29, 2016 Avast Passwords stores all your login details safely with just one Main Password, so you can sign in faster without reusing your passwords – or worse – saving them on your browser. Free Features: Create strong, unique passwords for all your accounts - yet remember just one. Note: The Passwords extension is currently available for Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox, and is included in Avast SafeZone Browser by default. Importing passwords does not automatically delete them from your browser.

Google Chrome comes with its own built-in security measures to warn you about dangerous websites and weed out phishing scams, but it never hurts to have more (or better) safeguards when you’re browsing.

Microsoft just released a Windows Defender extension for Chrome. It basically offers the same real-time protection as Google’s browser, but Microsoft claims that its extension can block 99 percent of phishing attacks while Chrome only catches 87 percent. Them’s fightin’ words. Avast! for mac 10.7.

Finally, HTTPS Everywhere does exactly what its name suggests, bringing an extra layer of security to websites you visit by forcing them to use HTTPS connections (preventing potential man-in-the-middle attacks).

Of course, all the software in the world won’t help if you don’t use a little common sense too: Don’t visit sketchy websites, don’t download random files, and be careful to whom you give your password. Still, with an extra Chrome extension (or two), you’ll have a lot less to worry about.
