CRXcavator Gatherer - Chrome Extension for Risk Management

CRXcavator Gatherer is a practical Chrome Extension designed to collect Chrome Extension usage statistics across an organization. It empowers administrators by providing them statistics about the most and least used extensions within their domain. This holistic overview helps in effective risk management by focusing efforts on the most used extensions and considering the elimination of rarely used ones. It makes up for the limitation of tools like chef, jamf, and osquery that cannot run on all platforms such as Chromebooks, hence broadening the scope of data collection.

10/10 A++ Fast shipping! Would Force Install again!

A handy tool for looking after your own and other peoples security. If you did not install it, the person that looks after your computer did. The use of this service varies, but you can use it without an account if you just want to check the potential privacy and security issues in the other extensions you may use, including looking at the source code for the extensions. This extension uploads any unknown or updated extensions to the website for analysis.
