Extension Management

Secure Your Browser Extensions, Secure Your Business 

Seraphic’s powerful browser extension management secures Chrome, Safari, Edge, Firefox and any other browser. Because today, a secure browser extension is an important part of any business security. 

Browsers: the frontline of enterprise security  

Browser extensions are increasingly becoming enterprise-class tools. For productivity and workflow, security and privacy, development and testing, social media and communication, entertainment and recreation, and much more – browser extensions, together with different AI tools have become a mission-critical part your day-to-day work.

Yet browser extensions can also be dangerous – spying on your users, stealing sensitive data, and damaging devices. Even non-malicious extensions are often overly permissive – requesting access to more data and features than they need and capturing usage patterns and personal data without consent. What’s more, the most benign browser extension can become dangerous if it’s taken over by a malicious actor through updates or ownership changes – making it a potential gateway for deployment of malicious code.

Legacy solutions fall short

Legacy endpoint and network security solutions (CASB, SWG, RBI, endpoint security and more) are blind to what happens in browser extensions – not to mention in browsers themselves. These solutions can’t monitor the massive amount of data that flows through browser extensions. They can’t see browser-based user interactions. And they can’t manage extension permissions. This leaves browser users – meaning everyone – vulnerable to client-side attack via the browser.

And that’s why Seraphic made it a priority to bridge the browser extension gap – offering administrators unparalleled precision in managing and mitigating browser extension risks.
