Protection from adult content (parental control) and from dangerous sites.
Fox Web Security: Adult & Dangerous Sites Control for Edge
Fox Web Security is an Edge add-on designed to protect internet users and their offspring from hazardous contents and adult sites. It utilizes information from safe and free DNS servers to offer web threat protection and adult content restriction. Its innovative algorithms make it a high-speed and minimal size add-on delivering high-level protection, though it does not replace an anti-virus. It cannot guarantee 100% safety, and its usage does not negate the need for observing basic security rules online.
