FormAlert: Secure Your Passwords with Ease

FormAlert is a free browser extension available on Chrome that helps protect your passwords from potential security risks. Developed by Mike Leonard, this add-on falls under the category of Browsers and specifically Add-ons & Tools.

FormAlert's main purpose is to notify users when a form containing password fields is loaded using an insecure connection, specifically HTTP instead of HTTPS. With the increasing number of websites transitioning to HTTPS for secure data transmission, it's crucial to be aware of any potential risks when submitting sensitive information.

By alerting users about insecure connections, FormAlert empowers them to make informed decisions about the passwords they are submitting. This is particularly important because many individuals tend to use the same email and password combination across multiple sites. If an attacker intercepts and steals such a password, they could potentially gain unauthorized access to various personal accounts, including email accounts.

It's worth noting that FormAlert does not prevent users from submitting forms on insecure connections. Instead, it serves as a valuable reminder and prompts users to exercise caution when sharing their passwords.

With FormAlert, you can enhance your online security and protect your sensitive information from potential threats. Download this free browser extension now and take control of your password security.

Why is the software program still available?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false positives.

What is a false positive?

It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program.

We’d like to highlight that from time to time, we may miss a potentially malicious software program. To continue promising you a malware-free catalog of programs and apps, our team has integrated a Report Software feature in every catalog page that loops your feedback back to us.
