Schedule Demo Watch a DemoLayerX provides full visibility into all extensions in the organization on all users, all browsers, and all devices, so that you can fully identify your threat surface
LayerX automatically assesses the risk profile of each extension, analyzing both their scope of permissions, as well as external factors such as the extension reputation, to produce a unified, holistic risk score
LayerX enables adaptive, risk-based protection against risky browser extensions with granular, configurable security policies that can be tailored to the specific needs of the organization without impacting legitimate extensions
Browser extensions operate inside almost every employee’s browser—with powerful permissions and minimal oversight, these extensions bypass traditional security tools and open the door to data leaks, credential theft and compliance violations.

LayerX offers an Extension Security Dashboard that provides a way to view extension inventory, risk levels, and critical alerts, enabling security teams to detect threats and enforce policies in real-time for streamlined control and visibility.
LayerX provides visibility to all extensions installed in the organization across all browsers, devices, and users. It maps out key information for each extension, such as the extension’s users, permission scope, category, installation type, source, and more. This allows security managers to get a full view of the organization’s browser extension threat surface.
LayerX identifies risky browser extensions by analyzing both internal factors like access to passwords, cookies, and user input and external signals such as ratings, downloads, and age. It combines these signals into a unified risk score, enabling security teams to proactively identify and block high-risk extensions even before they’re installed.
LayerX continuously monitors extensions in real time. If an extension suddenly starts exhibiting risky behavior, such as accessing sensitive data or communicating with suspicious domains, LayerX detects and blocks it immediately. This real-time protection helps enterprises respond instantly to evolving and zero-day threats without relying on periodic audits.
Unlike manual blocklist-based tools, LayerX automates extension security using risk-based classification. Organizations can tailor enforcement from monitoring and warning users with customizable messages, to outright disabling existing extensions or preventing the installation of new ones. Thereby reducing admin overhead and improving governance.
In the past, organizations had to install browser extensions in their environment (or a sandbox) in order to analyze their risks. LayerX ExtensionPedia allows organizations to analyze any extension, even if it’s not yet installed, with detailed extension risk profiles, permission analysis, developer reputation, and risk scoring, empowering security teams to assess risky extensions with minimal effort.
