Final Report for May
What progress was made on your grant this month?
This month, we focused on fully rebuilding the SecureSphere browser extension from scratch. The decision was driven by security concerns in the previous version, particularly the potential exposure of sensitive data to stealer log malware. The new build ensures robust encryption and enhanced protection for all user data.
The extension has now reached completion and represents a significant milestone in the delivery of a secure, privacy-first tool.
