CheckMyLink (check.cyberskills.ie) is a new national service that will be led by Cyber Skills in association with ScamAdviser and An Garda Síochána. The aim is to increase consumers’ confidence that an online website that they are buying from is authentic, and to make sure that the website is not infected with malware.

The service is easy to use and simply asks online users to provide only the URL of the website they are visiting. The service then generates an online report from trusted sources, which is aimed at increasing consumers’ confidence that the website or link is authentic and safe to browse.

CheckMyLink is ScamAdviser’s white-label solution for keeping the internet safe from scams. Get in touch to know more.
