CIRA Canadian Shield por Canadian Internet Registration Authority (CIRA)

CIRA Canadian Shield helps block access to malicious websites that can steal your data, install harmful software or trick you into scams.

See website status

This extension provides visual cues to show whether a website is safe. A green icon means you can browse with confidence. A red icon means access is restricted and a block page is displayed.

Choose between two levels of protection:

• Protected: blocks malware, phishing, botnets and scams.
• Family: includes everything in Protected and blocks adult content.

PIN protection

Sharing your device with others? PIN protection enables you to lock your protection level in place with a unique four-to-six-digit combination. Under the Family level, PIN protection prevents children from switching to Protected, where adult content may be accessible.

To set up PIN protection:

1. Click on the Canadian Shield extension icon in your browser.
2. Choose your protection level, then toggle on “PIN protection.” You’ll be prompted to enter a four-to-six-digit PIN.
3. Enter and confirm your PIN. Once enabled, your selected protection level will be locked.
