# Browser Extension Control

Proactive protection for browser-based threats

Browser extensions are powerful tools that enhance productivity, but also present significant security risks when left unmanaged. Application control from Airlock Digital features Browser Extension Control allowing organizations to secure their browsing environments — including Chrome, Edge, and Firefox — by allowing only trusted extensions to run, reducing the risk of malicious extensions compromising sensitive data or introducing vulnerabilities such as [ransomware or malware](https://www.airlockdigital.com/use-cases/prevent-malware-ransomware).

### Prevent unauthorized extensions from running with centralized visibility.

### Mitigate phishing risks by blocking extensions designed to steal credentials or sensitive data.

### Support a Zero Trust security framework by enforcing strict control over browser environments.

### Prevent extension "typo squatting" by restricting users from accidentally installing unapproved extensions.
