Comodo Verification Engine
|
Comodo Verification Engine is an anti-phishing add-on that works with all popular browsers and automatically verifies the identity of many commercial websites. To make sure that the site you are doing business with is what it claims to be, you can simply hover your mouse over the company logo and a green border will appear around your browser window (and optional audio alert), indicating that the site has been verified. Verification Engine can detect advanced phishing scams by verifying the IP address of the actual site, as well as form submissions via login box. The program can only verify sites that are registered with the service, however this covers most large online merchants and financial institutions. Works with Internet Explorer, Firefox and Netscape.

* Verification of login boxes with SubmitVerify
VerificationEngine uses patent pending technology to authenticate that a website loginbox is legitimate and authentic to the company it purports to be. Combined with anti-keylogging systems.
* Verification of SSL session and encryption endpoint with SSLVerifiy
VerificationEngine allows users of Internet Explorer to determine if the business credentials of the entity with which they have a secure SSL session are available from within the SSL certificate which is being used to encrypt the communication. - What this means is that no Man-in-the-Middle attack can take place as you can be assured of who it is you are communicating with.
* Protection against Phishing attacks
Phishing attacks rely on using a link in an e-mail to entice you to a web site which claims to be a legitimate website but is in actual fact a fraudulent site. Now, even if you click on a link and arrive on what should be your banks website you can verify whether it is or not.
* Protection against Pharming attacks using IPVerify
Pharming attacks rely on a virus or Trojan program which corrupts a file on your PC which even if you type the correct URL into your browser send you to a fraudulent website. VerificationEngine supports IPVerify which prevents Pharming attacks from succeeding by not only checking the domain name of a sever but also it's unique IP address during the verification process.
* Automatic Updates
VerificationEngine has a fully automatic update mechanism ensuring the best performance, highest security and instant availability of the very latest Identity and Trust Assurance services.
* Suitable for Internet users with Visual Disabilities
VerificationEngine has been designed specifically to aid users with visual disabilities. Audio feedback can be employed as part of the verification test using a custom .wav file. The Trusted indicator width and colour can also be increased or changed accordingly to aid visual recognition.
* Self Protection attack avoidance system
VerificationEngine features the very latest self protection and monitoring systems constantly looking at the performance of the product and alerting you if any spurious software tries to attack the application or shut it down without permission.
* Artificial Intelligence System - identifying copycat attempts
Artificial Intelligence constantly looks for potential mimics and other software trying to display a similar 'trust indicator' around the outside of the screen. VerificationEngine will alert you of these fraudulent attempts; however it's always best to ensure you have the correct version of VerificationEngine. Never install a version which is not digitally signed by Comodo CA.
