Kentinedaug.xyz is not a search engine that can be trusted. Security researchers have classified Kentinedaug.xyz as a browser hijacker. When this browser hijacker application is installed on a computer, its users will notice that their browser's behavior is not normal. Instead of the homepage that they were using, they will see the Kentinedaug.xyz search engine as their homepage. Kentinedaug.xyz also will take the place of their new tab page and default search engine 

These changes are made to generate unnatural traffic to Kentinedaug.xyz every timer the computer user opens the browser, initiates a new tab, or tries to accomplish a new search. However, as was said above, Kentinedaug.xyz is not a reliable search engine because it does not possess the capacity of providing search results by itself. Therefore Kentinedaug.xyz needs to borrow the search results from third-party search engines, which can be real ones or bogus ones.

As a browser hijacker, Kentinedaug.xyz should not be allowed to stay on a computer or device because it may monitor your actions, collect data such as clicked URLs, browsing history, search history, IP address, geolocation and more, and use it to perform harmful actions or sell it to hackers.

If you notice that Kentinedaug.xyz is present on your machine, you should take the necessary steps to remove it.
