When teams work together online, it’s common to share accounts so everyone can jump into projects, access resources, and stay organized. It feels easy and efficient, but that same simplicity can open the door to big security problems. The more people who have access, the higher the chance of trouble—whether it’s someone slipping into sensitive data, a careless click on a risky website, or a shady browser extension that puts the whole account at risk.

The real challenge is to provide team members with the access they need without putting your shared account at risk. Thankfully, DICloak Antidetect Browser provides a robust solution. With features like Website Access Restrictions and Security Protection Mode, DICloak ensures your team members only visit the secure, work-related sites they need, preventing unauthorized changes and protecting against harmful actions.

Website Access Restrictions: Protect Shared Accounts from Malicious Websites in Teamwork Online

In a teamwork online setting, one of the key issues with account sharing is controlling what websites team members can visit. It’s not just about granting access to a shared account, but ensuring that everyone only visits trusted, secure sites. That’s where Website Access Restrictions come in.

Why Website Access Restrictions Are Essential

The consequences of accessing unverified websites can be severe, especially when it comes to the safety of shared accounts:

  • Data Theft: Malicious websites can steal sensitive data, such as login credentials, personal information, or company secrets, leading to data breaches or identity theft.
  • Account Hijacking: Hackers often target insecure sites to capture cookies or session data, gaining unauthorized access to accounts. If a shared account is hijacked, it could compromise the entire team's work.
  • Alteration of Account Information: Some websites may attempt to alter or steal account passwords and other sensitive information, further jeopardizing account security.

Benefits of Website Access Restrictions

  • Protects Sensitive Data: This feature blocks access to harmful websites, ensuring that sensitive information like login credentials and company data stays secure.
  • Creates Clear Security Boundaries: It provides clear guidelines for team members, helping them avoid risky sites and reducing the chance of accidental security breaches.

With Website Access Restrictions, you can confidently manage account sharing in a teamwork online environment, knowing that your shared accounts are protected from unnecessary risks.

How to Set Website Access Restrictions

Setting up Website Access Restrictions is quick and easy. Follow these steps:

  1. Enable the Feature: Navigate to the Global Settings and enable the Website Access Restriction feature.
  2. Choose Restriction Method: You can either block access to specified sites or allow access only to specified sites, depending on your security needs.
  3. Add URLs: In the URL list, input the websites that you want to restrict or allow. You can add multiple URLs as needed.
  4. Quick Selection for Efficiency: For faster setup, you can select common sites like the Google Chrome Web Store from the Quick Selection option.
  5. Assign Member Groups: Select the member group(s) that will be subject to these restrictions to ensure proper access control.

With these settings, you can manage your team's access to websites efficiently, ensuring they only visit safe, work-related sites. For detailed instructions, please refer to our official guide: How to Set Website Access Restrictions for Team Members in DICloak.

Security Protection Mode: Prevent Extension Tampering to Secure Shared Accounts in Teamwork Online

Managing shared accounts in a teamwork online setting can feel like walking a tightrope—efficiency on one side, security on the other. One of the biggest dangers hiding in plain sight comes from browser extensions. A single tampered or malicious extension can quietly leak sensitive data, mess with account settings, or even unleash malware that disrupts the entire team’s workflow. That’s why Security Protection Mode steps in as your safety net, locking down accounts and keeping threats at bay.

Why Security Protection Mode Must Be Enabled

The risks of using tampered or malicious extensions are high, particularly when managing accounts in a teamwork online setting. Enabling Security Protection Mode is crucial for protecting your team’s work and sensitive data. Here's why:

  • Data Breaches: Malicious extensions can capture sensitive data such as login credentials, session information, or company secrets, leading to data breaches or identity theft.
  • Account Hijacking: A compromised extension can grant hackers unauthorized access to your account, putting the entire team’s work at risk.
  • Malware Injections: Malicious extensions may inject harmful code into your browser, causing system malfunctions or exposing your account to further vulnerabilities.

Features of Security Protection Mode

Extension Encryption and Tamper Protection

Think of this as a tripwire for your browser. If anyone—or anything—tries to tamper with an extension’s cache file, even by changing a single character, the profile locks down instantly. That means no data leaks, no hidden code injections, and no silent tweaks that could put your account at risk.

Version Control

Outdated software is like leaving a window open for attackers. Version Control makes sure every team member is running version ≥V2.6.18, so everyone gets the latest defenses. No weak links, no outdated loopholes—just full protection across the board.

Blocks Access to Browser Developer Tools

Developer tools are powerful, but in the wrong hands they can be dangerous. This feature shuts the door on anyone trying to poke around, alter settings, or debug the browser. For shared accounts, it’s a must-have barrier against curious clicks that could unravel security.

Prohibits Managing/Removing Extensions

With this safeguard, only approved extensions are allowed. Team members can’t add, delete, or tinker with them. The result? A consistent, trusted browsing environment that keeps everyone on the same page—literally and figuratively.

Restricts Access to Chrome Web Store

The Chrome Web Store is full of useful tools—but also plenty of shady ones. By blocking access, this feature stops team members from installing unverified extensions that could introduce malware or spyware. It’s a simple step that keeps shared accounts clean, stable, and secure.

By enabling Security Protection Mode, you can safeguard your accounts from tampered extensions and malicious attacks, ensuring that your team’s work remains secure and efficient.

One Click to Enable Security Protection Mode

Enabling Security Protection Mode is simple and can be done with just a single click. Here’s how:

1. In the Extensions section, click on the Security Protection Disabled toggle at the top right corner.

2. A pop-up window will appear, explaining the purpose of this feature and what it protects against.

3. Once Security Protection Mode is successfully enabled, you will see a Security Protection Enabled indicator. Additionally, each extension will display a green shield icon, signifying that it is now protected and secure.

With this straightforward process, you can ensure that your shared accounts and browser extensions are fully safeguarded against tampering and unauthorized changes.
