What kind of page is ced-adguard[.]pro?

Our inspection shows that ced-adguard[.]pro is a deceptive website that uses clickbait to lure visitors into consenting to receive notifications from it. Once ced-adguard[.]pro has permission to show notifications, it bombards users with misleading alerts and similar content. Users should not allow ced-adguard[.]pro and similar sites to deliver notifications.

Ced-adguard[.]pro in detail

Ced-adguard[.]pro shows an image of a robot and claims the user's network is showing suspicious behavior, asking them to confirm they are not robots. It displays a checkbox resembling a CAPTCHA and then prompts the user to click "Allow" as part of the verification. In reality, the site's true intent is to trick users into enabling its notifications.

Notifications from this page include fake security alerts (posing as “Windows Defender summary”) claiming that Windows Defender has detected five threats since the last scan and that the device has been scanned 12 times. These messages are designed to trick users into clicking the provided links.

Websites promoted through these notifications can be used for malicious purposes. For example, they can be created to steal personal information (e.g., credit card details or login credentials) that could be misused to steal accounts, identities, or money. Those sites can also be used to extract money from users or distribute malware.

Therefore, users should never permit ced-adguard[.]pro and similar pages to show notifications to avoid issues like monetary loss, computer infections, and other potential risks. If permission to show notifications to this site is already granted, it should be revoked as soon as possible.
