Audits risky Chrome extensions and lets you enable a safer extension mode before using AI and sensitive work apps.
Audits risky Chrome extensions and lets you enable a safer extension mode before using AI and sensitive work apps. AI Protect audits installed Chrome extensions and helps you temporarily pause untrusted extensions before using AI tools, business applications, or other sensitive websites. Browser extensions may have permission to access tabs, browsing activity, website data, downloads, or other powerful Chrome features. AI Protect provides a clear, local security audit so you can review these permissions, understand potential exposure, and decide which extensions you trust. Before starting sensitive work, enable Smart Safe Mode to pause selected risky extensions. When your session is complete, AI Protect can restore the extensions it paused. KEY FEATURES * Audit installed Chrome extensions in one place * Review permissions and website-access risks * Identify extensions that may deserve additional review * Temporarily pause selected untrusted extensions * Restore paused extensions after your session * Mark extensions as Trusted or Required * Configure custom protected domains * Receive alerts when visiting protected websites * Export audit results for review * Use a convenient keyboard shortcut PRIVACY-FIRST DESIGN AI Protect performs its security analysis locally in your browser. It does not read, collect, or transmit: * AI prompts or responses * Passwords or login information * Emails or private messages * Uploaded documents * Webpage content * Personal browsing history The active website domain is checked locally only to determine whether it matches a protected domain configured in the extension. HOW SMART SAFE MODE WORKS 1. Run an extension security audit. 2. Review permissions and mark trusted or required extensions. 3. Start Smart Safe Mode before using an AI or sensitive website. 4. Approve Chrome’s confirmation when required. 5. Restore paused extensions when your work is complete. IMPORTANT AI Protect is a browser privacy and permission-management tool. Risk indicators are based on declared Chrome permissions and website access. They do not prove that an extension is malicious. All extension changes are initiated by the user. AI Protect does not silently disable browser extensions while you browse. Improve your browser security, review extension permissions, and create a safer environment for AI-assisted work with AI Protect.
