The Web3 Opera browser has announced a new set of security tools aimed at helping its users mitigate common risks associated with malicious actors in the Web3 ecosystem.

The new security toolset called Web3 Guard is a set of browser security features that promises to protect users against malicious decentralized applications (DApps), seed phrase phishing attacks, and malicious actors.

The security tool checks for known security risks associated with DApps, such as suspicious code, security vulnerability, and audit history. This helps users get a better insight into the DApp they plan to explore and alerts them in case any of the mentioned vulnerabilities are found.

The built-in security tools would also check for any seed phrase phishing attacks by scanning web pages for telltale signs of exploitation, such as common phishing keywords and properties, without compromising users’ privacy or personal data.

New crypto browser security tools also introduced a malicious address checker within Opera crypto Wallet that scans recipient addresses against a list of known malicious actors and warns users if suspicious activity is detected. In addition, the browser has the option to enable HTTPS everywhere, adding an extra layer of security and ensuring that the websites users visit employ reliable encryption techniques.
