What it does

Browser extensions are leaking private data about your organization. Many request an excessive amount of data from users and resell it. Extension Monitor helps IT and Security teams track browser extension installations and threats in real-time.

Monitor the browser extensions your users install.

User-installed browser extensions track and sell sensitive browsing data. Extension Monitor helps IT and Security teams track browser extension installations in real-time . Extensions request excessive permissions from your users like visibility into every URL they visit. Ugh, users. The companies behind the extensions sell your users’ URL visits. Even legitimate looking extensions have privacy policies allowing them to sell your data to unknown actors. It's shady. Security concerns are compounded by insecure SaaS apps or homegrown tools that expose personal information, trade secrets, or access tokens in the URL. It's quite afrom extensionmonitor.com
