Do You Unknowingly Use A Dangerous Browser Extension?
There are several browser add-ons available that may speed up, boost productivity, and customize our online experience. While the majority of them
perform their intended functions, some of them are not at all intended to be of assistance to you.
Unintentionally downloading a malicious browser extension might reduce your productivity and potentially inundate your work with intrusive
advertisements. Moreover, it might alter your search engine and direct you to affiliate websites when you make purchases. The extension's
designers profit from these actions.
More than 4 million of the company's clients have reportedly been subjected to adware attacks over the past couple of years, according to a recent
analysis from a cyber-security firm. People frequently were not aware of being attacked.
How may I be impacted by this?
In a more sinister situation, these malicious extensions can be concealing genuine malware that might harm your machine. Due to this, critical
information, like login credentials or even payment information, may be stolen. Malware may naturally propagate over a whole network.
It's critical that only download browser extensions from reputable and trusted sites in order to protect your company and its data from the risk of
harmful browser extensions. Look at ratings and read reviews. A browser is definitely scam if it looks too wonderful to be true.
You as the company's owner could also consider limiting the extensions that your staff is allowed to install.
