ZeroTrust — AlphaByteCore Chrome Extension

What It Does

Features

🔍

Real-Time Scanning

Every page load triggers an instant analysis of DOM content, inline scripts, external resources, and outgoing requests against 100K+ known threat patterns.

🎣

Phishing Detection

Identifies spoofed login pages, credential-harvesting forms, and lookalike domains using visual hashing and URL entropy analysis.

📡

Community Threat DB

Syncs with a live, community-reported threat database. Threats reported by users worldwide are verified and pushed to all installations every 6 hours.

🔒

On-Device Processing

Zero browsing history, zero URLs, zero data ever transmitted to any server. The threat ruleset is the only thing that's fetched.

⚡

Zero Performance Impact

Async scanning pipeline runs entirely off the main thread. Page load times are unaffected — average scan overhead is under 3ms.

📊

Threat Dashboard

Visual breakdown of blocked threats, risk scores per domain, and a 30-day history of everything ZeroTrust has caught.

🛑

Strict Mode

Force-block all pages with any threat signal, not just high-severity ones. Ideal for high-security environments.

📥

Export Reports

Export threat logs as CSV or JSON for audit purposes. Useful for security teams and researchers.

The Process

How It Works

1

Page Loads

As the browser navigates to a URL, ZeroTrust intercepts the request and performs an instant hash lookup against the local threat cache.

2

Deep Scan

DOM content, inline scripts, and all external resource URLs are analyzed against 100K+ threat patterns using local rule evaluation.

3

Alert or Pass

Clean pages load normally with zero delay. Flagged pages show a detailed threat report with risk level, category, and recommended action.
