How it works

Start with a tool. Add an account when it helps.

Each service works on its own, so you only use what you need. Here is the path from a first check to a full account.

  1. Step 01

    Try a tool, no account

    Paste a suspicious message, open a link safely, check a website, test a password or clean a photo. No sign-up, no card.

    • Message, link, website, tracker, lookalike-domain and password checks, plus the Telegram bot, work without signing in
    • Password, photo and Paste Guard checks run in your browser, so nothing you type or choose is uploaded
    • A daily limit per visitor keeps the free tools open to everyone

    Behind itBrowser-only tools never send your input to us. The others send only what you submit, and a visitor's request is not tied to a name.

  2. Step 02

    Sign in to keep the full report

    A free account saves the detailed report and lets you download it as a PDF. The verdict and the safety advice stay free for everyone.

    • Email and password, the country you live in, and your explicit consent. No card needed
    • Every check you run while signed in is saved under My reports, and you can delete any of them
    • Your country decides which privacy law applies to the requests you send

    Behind itA message you check is saved as its result and findings, not as the message text. You can export your data or delete your account in Settings.

  3. Step 03

    Use the deeper services

    With an account you can go further than a quick check.

    • Analyse a full suspicious email, header by header
    • Audit a domain you have proven you own, and run an AI security test on a document
    • Find the sites where your email address is registered, and plant canary tokens that email you when opened
    • Send KVKK, GDPR or CCPA erasure requests to companies, with the reply deadline tracked

    Behind itThe law applied to an erasure request is chosen from the country on your profile, and each request records which one it was sent under.

  4. Step 04

    Learn and get a certificate

    MyDefense Academy has short lessons and a free test for eight everyday security topics. The test places you on a scale from level 1 to 5 and explains every answer.

    • Lessons and tests need no account
    • With an account you can turn your results into a personal certificate
    • Anyone with the certificate code can check it on a public page

    Behind itTests are scored on our server, so the answer key never reaches your browser. The certificate is certified by MyDefense on the basis of your result, and the public page shows only what we recorded. Issued by MyDefense; not issued by a public authority.

  5. Step 05

    One wallet, free today

    Every service can be sold in the way that suits it: free, included in a plan, or a few cents a time from a wallet. Right now nothing is charged.

    • No subscription is needed to use the free services
    • Before any service becomes paid, we tell you in the app and by email
    • The pricing page always lists each service and how it is sold today

    Behind itPrices are read from the service catalogue, so the pricing page and what you are charged cannot drift apart.

  6. Step 06

    More services over time

    MyDefense is a toolbox, not a single product. Each new service plugs into the same account, reports and wallet.

    • New tools appear on the Free tools page first
    • Breach monitoring for your account email is being switched on
    • Tell us what you would use next through the contact page

    Behind itEvery service has its own switch, so one can be paused or changed without affecting the others.

Questions

What people ask before they start

Anything else, ask us directly: hello@mydefense.io.

→Do I need an account to use the tools?
No. Most checks work without one. An account adds saved reports and PDFs, email analysis, security scans of your own domains, erasure requests, canary tokens and Academy certificates.
→Is what I paste kept?
Browser-only tools never send it to us. For the others, what you submit is analysed for the result. If you are signed in, the report keeps the findings, not the message text.
→Is it really free?
Yes, for everyone. In the future a service can become paid through a plan or a wallet. We will tell you before that happens, and the pricing page shows the current state.
→Does it scan or delete my social media posts?
Not right now. Connecting social platforms is paused until each platform approves our access. The free tools and erasure requests work today.
→What can an erasure request not do?
It asks a company to act under your law. It cannot force an answer or remove copies held by people who are not the company, such as reposts and screenshots. If nobody replies, the deadline is tracked so you know when to escalate.
→Can I get my data out or close my account?
Yes. Both are in Settings, under your account.

The first tool takes about a minute
