About Extension Shield
ExtensionShield helps you scan, review, and manage Chrome extensions with more confidence. It checks installed extensions for risky permissions, privacy signals, and security concerns, then shows a simple score so you can quickly understand which extensions deserve attention.
With ExtensionShield, you can:
- Scan installed extensions and see clear risk labels
- Review requested permissions to spot extensions with broad or sensitive access
- Check privacy signals before trusting an extension
- Scan a Chrome Web Store URL or extension name before installing
- Refresh scans anytime to review the latest results
- Enable, disable, or uninstall extensions directly from the popup
- Manage all your extensions in one place without opening Chrome’s extension manager
ExtensionShield is built for people who want a simpler way to understand browser extension risk and keep their browser cleaner, safer, and easier to manage.
