Is Netwrix Password Secure safe?
Netwrix Password Secure captures form fields including passwords on every page and fetches autofill configuration from netwrix.com on startup.
On startup, the extension fetches a JSON configuration from netwrix.com that controls which URL patterns trigger autofill, with no integrity verification on the response. A content script running on all HTTP and HTTPS pages listens for form submissions and collects all visible input values — including password fields — then sends them to the extension background for credential-saving workflows. Any webpage can also detect the extension's presence by dispatching a custom DOM event.

What this publisher told the store about itself, and the other listings that told it the same thing.
Shared hosts - 1 hostname
Hostnames hardcoded in this extension that few other listings call. That can mean one operator behind both, and it can equally mean a small shared vendor, so it is context rather than a conclusion. Hosts that many listings call are left out: they are services, not connections.

Where it sends data
Destinations our analysis observed Netwrix Password Secure contacting. Sending data somewhere is not a finding on its own - an extension that syncs your settings has to talk to its own server - but it is where your data can go, and who else it goes to.
