In our latest test, we aimed to determine which browser—Microsoft Edge or Google Chrome—provides better protection against phishing links. Previously, we tested these browsers against malware, but today we focus on phishing threats, which are a significant concern for internet users. To conduct our test, we used the latest reported phishing links from PhishTank. This live feed provides real-time phishing links that appear on the web. We tested each link on both browsers to see which one blocks the most. Testing Methodology For this test, we included Brave with the Guardio web extension as a control. Guardio is designed to block phishing links, offering an additional layer of protection. Since Brave and other reskinned browsers like Vivaldi utilize the safe browsing feature of their base browsers (Brave uses Chrome's safe browsing), we did not test them separately. Instead, we focused on how well Brave performs with Guardio installed compared to Edge and Chrome. Results
