Malicious browser extensions are the silent security threat in many organizations, often being granted extensive permissions and putting users’ identity information and data at risk. LayerX provides full visibility and control over all browser extensions with automated controls and enforcement options
Request 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
Since LayerX is deployed directly in the browser, it can identify and monitor all browser extensions, on all browsers. This means we can detect risky or malicious extensions, and enforce adaptive, risk-based security policies that allow users to use safe browser extensions while blocking unsanctioned or unsafe ones
Discover all extensions, on all browsers, for all users, across all devices, within a single unified view
Categorize browser extensions according to pre-define automatic categories (such as AI-enabled extensions, VPN extensions, password managers, etc.), or create your own custom-made categories
View the risk score for each browser extension, based on a combination of their permission scope (i.e., what access to data they have) and their overall reputation based on external factors such as author, rating, number of downloads, etc.
Define granular security policies to block the installation of risky or malicious browser extensions, or prevent the installation of new ones
The LayerX Browser Security Platform is a user-first browser security solution, which turns any browser into the most secure and manageable workspace, while maintaining top user experience.
This is possible thanks to the LayerX ability to:
