Whitelist suspicious domain for Phishing and Malware Protection
-
Vivaldi has a safety feature which will warn you when the URL you are attempting to visit bears a resemblance to another domain and will ask you to confirm you want to visit that URL. This frequently pops up for a subdomain we use for SSO with a well known cloud provider. It would be ideal if I could whitelist this single domain, instead of disabling the whole feature.
Also, if I leave my browser open overnight, my session will timeout, and the cloud provider will link me back to the login. Sometimes, this link appears to go nowhere, and I suspect this is also being blocked.

@harrygc Hi, this is probably Google Safebrowsing if you get a warning like this:
There is no way to override this in Vivaldi and Vivaldi has no control over what sites are reported as deceptive. Best is to turn off the feature and instead rely on native anti-malware solutions running on the client that you actually have control over.
You can report incorrect warnings to Google:

cheers @pathduck, I figured that was likely the case, but I've reported the false positive, in the hopes it improves Google's heuristics. Many thanks!

@harrygc OK good
I'm curious, what was the URL of the false positive, if you're able to give it? Did you find it in the status search?
-
@pathduck I won't give the whole game away, but it confuses
https://company-com.awsapps.com/start#/ as an attempt to phish https://company.comThe safe browsing report says the URL is clean.
-
@harrygc Yeah, safebrowsing is st00pid, that's why I just turn it off
