Episode description

The world of Google Chrome extensions—the sometimes helpful tools that can work directly with the Google Chrome browser to provide a variety of features—is enormous. So, with a marketplace of more than 200,000 items, quality control gets tricky. On today's episode, we speak with Pieter Arntz, malware intelligence researcher for Malwarebytes, about safely downloading Google Chrome extensions and how to avoid some of the more malicious extensions that are meant to hijack searches or sneakily deliver money for their developers.
