Extension Auditor - The Browser Security Platform

Description

Scan extensions before you install and audit installed ones — permissions, malware detection, activity logs, privacy hardening. Extension Auditor – Audit, Assess, and Manage Your Browser Security Posture Overview Extension Auditor is a powerful all-in-one Chrome extension designed to help users manage, monitor, and secure their browser environment. It brings together three key features: Secure Extension Manager, Extension Activity Logs, and Privacy Settings Manager — all packaged into a single privacy-focused tool. Chrome Extension Security Perform comprehensive offline, on-device security analysis of installed browser extensions. • Permission Analysis: Understand the security implications of each permission requested. • Host Access Review: Detect extensions with overly broad host permissions, such as access to all websites (<all_urls>) or sensitive domains like banking portals or internal tools. • Content Script Inspection: Identify extensions injecting scripts into web pages, potentially impacting privacy and security. • Manifest Analysis: Review extension manifest configurations to assess compliance with best practices. • Dangerous Combinations Detection: Detect extensions that pose risks through combinations of permissions, host access, and content scripts. • Risk Dashboard: View a summary of all high-risk extensions and take action accordingly. • CRX/ZIP Archival: Automatically saves available CRX/ZIP packages for installed extensions. • Ideal for IT administrators, security professionals, and privacy-conscious users. Extension Activity Logs App Gain full lifecycle visibility into browser extensions through real-time logging. • Tracks important events: • Installation and uninstallation • Enable and disable events • Version upgrades and downgrades • Permission changes during version updates • Sort logs by extension name, state, ID, and event type. • Export logs for auditing, incident response, or backup purposes. • Presented in a clean, tabular format optimised for quick analysis. Privacy Settings Manager App Improve your browser security posture using a risk-based privacy score and configurable toggles. • Privacy Score: A snapshot of how secure your current browser settings are. • Quick Toggles: Control the most important browser privacy and tracking settings. • Manage the following privacy areas: • Block JavaScript, third-party cookies, and notification prompts • Disable referer headers, client hints, and predictive network behavior • Turn off autofill, omnibox suggestions, and spelling services • Block access to camera, microphone, and location • Disable images, custom fonts, and ad tracking • Strip tracking parameters from URLs • Auto-delete cookies on exit • Block pings, beacons, and CSP reports • Set Accept-Language header to en-US to minimize fingerprinting Optional permissions are requested only for the Privacy Settings Manager. Core functionality like Secure Extension Manager and Activity Logs work without additional permissions.
