Keeper Security Introduces Verify Mode and New Browser Controls to Prevent Phishing and Credential Misuse

New feature validates credential use at the point of entry, helping enterprises stop phishing attacks before credentials are exposed

CHICAGO, April 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Keeper Security, the leading zero-trust and zero-knowledge identity security and Privileged Access Management (PAM) platform, today announces the release of Verify Mode, a new anti-phishing capability in version 17.8 of its browser extension. Verify Mode provides real-time validation of where credentials are being entered, helping prevent users from entering passwords into malicious or unrecognized websites.

As phishing attacks continue to grow in sophistication and frequency, credential theft remains one of the most effective paths for unauthorized access into enterprise systems. According to research from Verizon, 60% of breaches involved a human element, such as credential abuse or phishing scams. Modern organizations operating across cloud, hybrid and remote environments face increasing exposure to these threats. The new, optional Verify Mode introduces an active control at the point of credential entry, reducing reliance on user judgment alone.

“Phishing attacks succeed by targeting the moment that users enter their credentials,” said Darren Guccione, CEO and Co-founder of Keeper Security. “Even well-trained employees can be deceived by convincing, malicious websites. Verify Mode changes that by validating credential use in real time, ensuring passwords are only entered on trusted domains. It shifts credential security from passive storage to active protection.”

Real-Time Protection Against Credential Misuse

Verify Mode monitors password paste activity in the browser and verifies that the destination site matches the corresponding record stored in the user’s Keeper Vault. If a mismatch is detected, users receive an immediate warning before credentials are submitted, with clear details and the option to proceed or cancel.

Verify Mode includes configurable protection levels to align with organizational risk tolerance:

Medium: Alerts users when credentials copied from the vault are pasted into a different site than the one savedHigh: Warns users when a password is pasted into any site not stored in the vaultMaximum: Requires confirmation before pasting passwords on any site, including trusted ones

These controls allow security teams to balance strong protection with a seamless user experience across roles and environments.

Extending Zero Trust To Credential Usage

Verify Mode extends Keeper’s zero-trust approach beyond credential storage to real-time enforcement of credential usage. By validating every interaction, organizations gain stronger control over how and where credentials are used.

Key enterprise benefits include:

Reduced risk of credential-based attacks: Stops phishing at the point of entryStronger security posture: Enforces continuous validation aligned with zero-trust principlesEnhanced compliance readiness: Demonstrates enforcement of secure credential practicesReduced human error: Mitigates one of the leading causes of breaches

Verify Mode further bolsters Keeper’s unified identity security platform, which combines password management, secrets management, endpoint privilege management, AI-powered threat detection and privileged access controls into a single, cloud-based solution designed for modern enterprise environments.

As identity-based attacks continue to target users across SaaS applications, cloud and remote environments, organizations need real-time controls. Verify Mode delivers this protection directly at the point of credential use without disrupting the user experience.

Other features in Browser Extension release 17.8 include prompting users to disable the built-in browser password manager and support for custom fields. Upon first login or installation of the KeeperFill Browser Extension, a prompt will appear asking users to set Keeper as their default password manager. This optional step prevents interference from the browser’s native password manager, guaranteeing the best possible autofill experience without requiring manual adjustments.

Users can now also add custom fields directly to records from the browser extension, no longer requiring a switch to the web vault for editing. An unlimited number of custom fields can be added and easily reordered using drag-and-drop, similar to the existing feature on web and mobile vaults. These fields can store sensitive information, like security questions, PINs or private notes regarding logins, and are masked by default for privacy.

Verify Mode is now available in the Keeper browser extension for enterprise users. Administrators can enable and configure protection levels through the Keeper Admin Console. To learn more, visit KeeperSecurity.com.

Trimble Links SketchUp with Anthropic’s Claude, Bringing New Conversational AI-powered Capabilities to 3D Modeling

Trusted, intuitive AI enhances design workflows, making it easier to move from creative concepts to 3D models

WESTMINSTER, Colo., April 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Trimble (Nasdaq: TRMB) today announced a specialized integration with Claude, the large language model and AI assistant from Anthropic, that makes it easier for Trimble® SketchUp® software users to create 3D models directly from conversational text or speech prompts.

The powerful new capabilities are enabled by a SketchUp Connector model context protocol (MCP) service that allows Claude to interact directly with SketchUp (.skp) files. The connectivity enhances existing design workflows and expands access to 3D modeling for people at any skill level.

Trimble SketchUp is a professional-grade 3D modeling software used widely in architecture, design, construction and other fields. This is the first Connector created by Trimble that connects the SketchUp design environment with other tools via the MCP framework.

Conversational 3D modeling
The SketchUp Connector integration with Claude lets users create 3D geometry, such as building massing models, landscapes or furniture by simply describing what they want. Plain-language inputs alongside reference images, sketches, photos, floor plans and dimensions that users upload can give Claude the context needed to understand the design goal. Claude builds the geometry in a cloud SketchUp session, verifying dimensions iteratively.

“The learning curve and time it takes for professionals to transfer a vision to a digital model has traditionally been the biggest barrier to 3D modeling,” said Chris Cronin, vice president and general manager of architecture and design solutions at Trimble. “Natural language prompts and the power of AI make it easy for anyone to get started and excel, including inexperienced and non-traditional 3D design users, bringing us closer to our ‘3D for everyone’ goal.”

The specialized Claude integration for SketchUp is consistent with Trimble-wide initiatives to democratize advanced technology and make them available and accessible to a wider range of users, according to Cronin.

Additional 3D modeling advantages
In addition to allowing natural language prompts, the SketchUp Claude Connector tracks version history within a single chat, enabling users to rapidly navigate, troubleshoot and refine their 3D models. If a design is not quite accurate, users can describe necessary changes or paste screenshots from SketchUp directly into the chat to point out specific angles, proportions or elements that need adjustment.

When a model is completed, the Connector creates a 2D preview thumbnail and provides a direct download link to the .skp file. Users can instantly download, open and edit the file in any SketchUp modeler.

Users can also design and train Claude on core skills and unique workflows to complete repetitive tasks more quickly and efficiently.

Availability
Users can get started today by enabling Trimble SketchUp in Claude’s MCP directory connector settings. Accessing the Connector requires a Claude account and a Trimble ID for authentication. Users receive a free SketchUp entitlement that allows them to save up to 30 SketchUp models; after that, a paid entitlement is required. Resulting files can be opened in SketchUp for Web, Desktop, iPad or iPhone.
