Visibility Into All Software & Browser Extensions Across Computer Environment

Overview

IT environments evolve quickly. Users install tools, plugins, helper applications, and browser extensions that IT often never sees. Over time, this creates:

• Security exposure from unmanaged or unknown extensions

• Performance issues from outdated or unstable software

• Troubleshooting delays due to missing context

• Compliance gaps for audits or software governance

• Shadow IT, software that bypasses approval processes

Without a reliable, unified inventory, IT teams operate with blind spots.

Applixure solves this by providing a complete, live inventory of:

• Installed applications

• Their versions, age, and usage

• Software stability indicators (crashes, errors, unusual behavior)

• Browser extensions across all major browsers

• Extensions’ permissions and potential risk levels

This gives IT an immediate, accurate understanding of what exists in the environment, enabling faster support, better security control, and greater operational clarity.

Benefits

• Full, accurate overview of all installed software and browser extensions

• Instant identification of unapproved, outdated, or risky items

• Reduced time spent troubleshooting unknown software-related issues

• Improved security posture through visibility into extensions’ behavior and permissions

• Ability to standardize and enforce software baselines

• Faster compliance preparation for audits or governance reviews
