Enhance Your Browser Security with Extension Permissions Auditor

Extension Permissions Auditor is a free Chrome add-on designed to enhance browser security by auditing installed extensions for risky permissions. With its intuitive interface, users can easily view all extensions and their respective permissions in one convenient location. The tool flags high-risk permissions, such as webRequest or background access, providing clear alerts to help users identify potential security concerns.

In addition to real-time alerts for newly installed extensions, the program also tracks changes between browsing sessions, ensuring users are aware of any unexpected modifications. The color-coded indicators simplify the process of assessing whether an extension is safe or risky, empowering users to make informed decisions about their browser environment. This tool is a valuable asset for anyone looking to maintain control over their online privacy.

This software program is potentially malicious or may contain unwanted bundled software.

Why is the software program still available?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false positives.

What is a false positive?

It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program.

We’d like to highlight that from time to time, we may miss a potentially malicious software program. To continue promising you a malware-free catalog of programs and apps, our team has integrated a Report Software feature in every catalog page that loops your feedback back to us.
