Browser extension triage: how the tools compare
EDR, XDR, and browser-management platforms all inventory or score extensions. None of them read the code and run it to return a verdict. Here's where each one stops, and where behavioural analysis begins.
What separates these tools from behavioural analysis
Every tool on this page scores extensions from static signals - the permissions they declare, publisher reputation, known-CVE scans, AI code-reading, or telemetry from an agent on real machines. None of them publicly documents actually detonating the extension: loading it into an instrumented browser, driving it against live sites, and capturing the network calls, DOM changes and messages its code really produces. That behavioural evidence is what Am I Being Pwned is built on - the difference between “this asked for risky permissions” and “this sent your session cookies to an unknown endpoint on every page load.”
CrowdStrike vs Am I Being Pwned
CrowdStrike Falcon inventories browser extensions and rates them by permission severity, but it can't read their code or give a verdict. Here's how to actually triage extensions with evidence.
SentinelOne vs Am I Being Pwned
SentinelOne has no dedicated browser-extension inventory or risk score - triage is a manual Data Lake query. Here's how to get an evidence-backed extension verdict instead.
Defender vs Am I Being Pwned
Defender Vulnerability Management rates extensions by permission on Windows only, and says 'risk is subjective'. Here's how to triage extensions with an evidence-backed verdict.
Google Workspace vs Am I Being Pwned
Google Workspace has strong extension controls but shows third-party permission scores, not its own verdict. Here's how to triage Chrome extensions with behavioural evidence.
Spin.AI vs Am I Being Pwned
Spin.AI scores extensions from permissions, CVEs, reputation and a sandbox signal - the scores we benchmarked against 2,534 extensions. Here's what a verdict with captured evidence adds.
LayerX vs Am I Being Pwned
LayerX ExtensionPedia scores 200,000+ extensions by permissions and reputation, no install needed. Here's what an isolated run and captured evidence catch that reputation misses.
Koi vs Am I Being Pwned
Koi genuinely runs dynamic analysis - the closest tool to what we do. The differences are narrow: free-tool depth, where the run happens, and the evidence you can inspect.
