Opt for well-known and reputable browser extension stores — such as Chrome Web Store or Firefox Add-ons — to reduce the risk of downloading counterfeit or malicious software. Furthermore, avoid granting unnecessary permissions to extensions, as these permissions may compromise the integrity of your information. Regularly review your installed extensions — ideally on a weekly basis, if not more frequently — and remove any that you no longer use to reduce the attack surface and keep your browser secure.
