Qondom — Share Safely. That QR code on the bathroom wall? The one taped to a lamp post? The sketchy sticker on the parking meter? Yeah, don't just scan that raw. Qondom is a security layer between you and whatever that QR code is trying to do. We intercept the payload, run it through a 10-point safety check, trace redirects, inspect SSL certificates, check domain reputation, and show you a full safety report — all before you ever touch the destination. Think of it as protection for the digitally active. What Qondom checks: - Phishing & malware detection - Suspicious redirects - Shady domains & fresh registrations - SSL certificate issues - URL reputation scoring - Sketchy payloads (yes, QR codes can do more than open websites) Create & share your own QR codes — encrypted, trackable, and verified. So the people scanning your codes know they're safe too. Free. No account required to scan. No excuses. No surprises. No regrets. Just safe scanning.
