Doesnt seem to block any phishing urls. I have not heard anything about reasonlabs and they have even 5 million downloads on chrome web store

This pre scan feature is very nice, i havent seen it before with any other extension

I have seen their products before, its like Avast, in that they uses adware and bundled installers to force-install their products on users systems.

They’ve been around for a while, they were founded by Andrew Newman who previously worked at Microsoft (Head of Threat Research) if I remember correctly. Their Endpoint Security is similar to Deep Instinct and their secure DNS (the only thing I’ve tried from them) is generally OK though threat blocking needs to be improved.
Haven’t tried their VPN or dark web scanning features but it seems they are aiming to become another Aura/Surfshark. The antivirus here is better though.

Back in the days i run a lot of testing on their old product and it was nothing but waste of time and money... And after you start investigating in deep you may see that the program is nothing special. But I like the Ui. As for Web and Mic protection their very good. Malware from 10k Malware Samples as i remember like 4k+ and that was te was the end of my testing.
