Secure Your Firefox Browser with Firekeeper Intrusion Detection System

Firekeeper is an IDS, Intrusion Detection System, for Firefox browser that can detect, warn and block the websites that are malicious in nature. Firekeeper has the ability to scan the incoming traffic, including HTTPS, and analyze URL, body and response headers to cancel further processing of suspicious looking websites.

Firekeeper uses rules that are similar to Snort to identify the malicious websites and attack attempts. The pattern matching algorithm is very fast as it’s taken directly from Snort. It also has the ability to use any number of files with rules and can automatically load files from remote systems too. Once an attack attempt is detected, it provides you with an interactive alert such that you can choose a response to detected attack attempt.
