Web of Trust (WOT) Teams with Panda Security

July 30, 2009

In an email only release, this morning, the folks at Web of Trust (WOT) announced that they’ve teamed with Panda Security, to offer co-branded versions of WOT’s community-driven internet security browser add-ons (that’s a mouthful). Their goal is to make surfing and shopping much safer experiences.

In my previous post, I mentioned how WOT reduces the risk of visiting dangerous websites, by having some of their 5 million users rate and comment on the sites they visit. So far, they have information on 23.6 million websites.

WOT already partners with a number of trusted sources, such as PhishTank, TRUSTe, and hpHosts.

Founded in 1990, Panda Security is the world’s leading provider of cloud-based security solutions, with products available in more than 23 languages and millions of users located in 195 countries around the world. Panda Security was the first IT security company to harness the power of cloud computing with its Collective Intelligence technology.

Matt, from Remove-Malware.com has put together this great video about WOT, with instructions for downloading, installing and using the WOT browser add-on.

If you haven’t installed the WOT plugin yet, you can get it at the Web of Trust website.
