About InboxSafe

InboxSafe is a browser extension that integrates with Gmail, Outlook and LinkedIn to scan incoming messages for phishing indicators before they are opened. It uses behavioral AI to detect social engineering tactics such as urgency manipulation, impersonation and authority spoofing, rather than relying solely on keyword matching or spam rules. The tool inspects URLs and domains for lookalike patterns, hidden redirects and credential harvesting pages, and verifies sender domains against known legitimate services to catch display name spoofing. It also extends protection to LinkedIn direct messages, which are increasingly used for spear phishing targeting professionals. Detection occurs within two seconds of message arrival, with alerts displayed directly in the inbox showing the specific risk signals identified. Users can report and block suspicious messages with one click, contributing to a shared threat intelligence network. Weekly threat reports summarize blocked attempts, risk trends and top attack patterns for individual or team accounts.
