Haven Verified

Know what Haven's pills are telling you.

Haven shows a pill on the sites it protects, Verified or Protected, so you're never guessing whether a login page or bank site is genuine. When something is actually dangerous, Haven doesn't rely on a pill to tell you. It stops you with a full red warning banner instead.

What the pills mean

Haven doesn't interrupt you, until something's actually wrong.

Verified and Protected are the only pills Haven shows, and each one means something specific and confirmed. When a page is actually dangerous, Haven skips the pill entirely for something you can't miss.

Verified

This is the real thing

The page matches one of the 200+ sites on Haven's protected list, banks, email providers, and other services people rely on most. This is a confirmed identity match, and it overrides every other signal Haven checks.

“Matched to Haven's protected list”

Protected

Verified, with extensions paused

The site is verified, and Haven has paused your other browser extensions on this tab while you're there, so nothing else running in your browser can read what you type. It happens on the most sensitive sites, like your bank, tax, government and healthcare sites, and your password manager keeps working. Same confirmed identity as Verified, shown in a darker green.

“Protected — the real Chase”

When it's actually dangerous, Haven does more than show a pill

If Haven finds a clear sign that a page is dangerous, or is impersonating a brand you trust, it interrupts with a full red warning banner across the top of the page rather than quietly changing a pill's color. It stays up until you choose to leave or continue, so it's hard to miss and easy to act on.

How it decides

Recognizing beats guessing.

If Haven already knows a site, it doesn't second-guess itself. If it doesn't, here's the process it goes through instead.

First

A confirmed match

If the page matches Haven's protected list, it's Verified (or Protected, if extensions are also paused on that page), full stop. No other signal, however alarming, can downgrade a confirmed identity match.

Next

Clear signs of danger

Outside the protected list, Haven weighs page-level signals and reputation data together. Strong, combined signals are what trigger the full-page warning, not any single flag on its own.

Otherwise

No pill at all

Most of the web isn't on Haven's protected list, and that's expected. Haven doesn't try to label every page it hasn't checked. No pill just means ordinary browsing, not a warning of any kind.

How Haven works

We'd rather protect the good ones than chase every bad one.

Two approaches, one problem. Here's why we picked ours.

The old way

Blacklists

Traditional security tools work by blacklisting sites already known to be bad. It sounds reasonable until you look at the timeline: new phishing pages appear every second, faster than any blacklist can track. A site has to be discovered, reported, and added before it does any good, and by then the attacker has often already moved the page to a new domain.

The result: always one step behind.

Haven's way

A protected list

200+sites protected

Verifying the entire internet isn't possible, so Haven doesn't try. Instead we maintain a curated list of the sites people rely on most, banks, email providers, and everyday tools where a mistake actually costs something. Every site on it is protected the moment you visit, no waiting for a report to come in. If yours isn't listed yet, you can request it be added, at no cost.

When a link points to a site on Haven's protected list, Haven puts a small green check next to it, on any page, including your Google search results. It's the same confirmed identity match as the Verified pill, shown before you click. A result that looks like your bank but has no check is your signal to look twice.
No, and it doesn't try to. Verifying the entire internet isn't possible, since new sites appear constantly. Instead Haven protects a curated list of 200+ sites people rely on most, and you can request any other site be added at no cost.
