Is Whatfix for Sophos - Support safe?
Whatfix for Sophos - Support shows in-app guides on Salesforce and SendSafely pages, with a page-reachable request relay.
The extension injects Whatfix walkthroughs into Sophos Salesforce and SendSafely pages and talks to Whatfix servers for guide content. Its content script accepts window messages from the page and passes request instructions (URL, method, headers, body) to the background worker, which fetches the URL and posts the response back to the page. Host access is limited to whatfix.com and it requests no cookies or tabs permission.

Whatfix Private Limited - 5 other listings from the same operator, none carrying a finding
What this publisher told the store about itself, and the other listings that told it the same thing.
Same store account
1 other listing published from this account, 1 users between them, none of them carrying a finding.
Same operator - 4 listings
Published under a different store account, but sharing the registered address, contact or declared legal entity this one gave the store.
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.
