Ezinye izibuyekezo ezifana ne-Firefox, i-Edge, ne-Safari zihlanganisa izixazululo zayo zayo zayo, zonke ngezinga ezahlukene; futhi ezinye izivakashi nezinhlangano kanye nezinhlangano zinikeza izixazululo zayo zayo zayo. Zizinto ezisebenzayo futhi ezilula ukusetshenziswa. I-Chrome Web Store I-Chrome Web Store Kodwa kungase kufinyelela ngentengo ephakeme. I-General Risks Yonke umuntu angakwazi ukwakha isifinyezo esitsha futhi isicelo yokubhalisa emakethe zomthetho noma ukunikezela ngokufanayo. Ngakho-ke ama-cybercriminals bafumana ama-victims yabo. Izifinyezo ezihambelana nezinhlangano zangaphakathi ziye zisetshenziselwa ukulanda i-cryptocurrencies, ukulanda ama-accounts ye-social media, kanye nokuhambisa abasebenzisi. Abacwaningi abacwaningi abanikeze lezi zixhobo njenge-add-ons ezisebenzayo, okwenza kuhlobonakalayo ngaphambi kokwenza ukuphazamiseka. Ngaphezu kwama-extensions ezivamile zihlanganisa izicelo ezininzi. Zihlanganisa izinto ezifana nokuguqulwa zonke izindawo zewebhu, ukulawula interface yayo, noma uketshezi noma iyiphi ikhodi.

E-phishing emangalisayo, isixazululo ayikho kuphela isixhobo – kuyinto inguqulo esizayo yokutholukwa kwebhizinisi lwezemali kanye nomphakathi. Izinzuzo ezithakazelisayo Ngo-2023 kuphela, izixazululo eziningi ze-Chrome zangaphakathi zangaphakathi zihlanganiswa yi-cybersecurity firm Ukusabela amakhasimende. I-Lab ye-Kaspersky One of the most notorious was Rilide, which targeted cryptocurrency holders by monitoring their online activity and stealing wallet credentials. It even bypassed two-factor authentication by injecting scripts that altered transaction details, redirecting funds to hackers. I-Lab ye-Kaspersky Lokhu ukucindezeleka ngokusebenzisa izindlela ezingenalutho, kuhlanganise ukulayisha amabhokisi amabhokisi amabhokisi amabhokisi amabhokisi amabhokisi amabhokisi amabhokisi amabhokisi amabhokisi amabhokisi amabhokisi amabhokisi amabhokisi amabhokisi amabhokisi amabhokisi amabhokisi amabhokisi amabhokisi amabhokisi amabhokisi amabhokisi amabhokisi amabhokisi amabhokisi amabhokisi amabhokisi amabhokisi amabhokisi amabhokisi amabhokisi amabhokisi amabhokisi amabhokisi amabhokisi amabhokisi amabhokisi amabhokisi amabhokisi. Okunye ama-extensions ezinzima ukuchitha ama-accounts e-intanethi.

Ngesikhathi eside, abasebenzisi e-Roblox baye zihlanganisa ama-extensions ezifana ne-SearchBlox, i-RoFinder, ne-RoTracker, okuyinto zihlanganisa izinsiza ze-in-game. Zonke izixhobo ziye zihlanganisa njengezixhobo ezijwayelekile, njenge-PDF converters ne-ad blockers, zihlanganisa abasebenzisi abesifazane. Nge-use complaints, ezinye zihlanganisa ku-Chrome Web Store iminyaka eminyakeni kuze kube ama-researchers yobuchwepheshe kanye nama-communities e-intanethi zikhuthaza i-Google ukuba asebenzise. Lokhu kubonisa izimo zokuxhumana kuphela kumadivayisi we-Chrome Web Store ukhuseleko. Overall, more than 87 million downloads of malicious extensions were recorded. I-Cyberhaven Case Abantu ngokuvamile ukholelwa ukuthi uma zithathwa digital, kungenzeka ukuthi inkulumo yabo ngokufanele ukuba akuyona izindlela ezinhle zokuvimbela noma zithathwe izimpendulo ze-cybercriminals. Lokhu akuyona njalo, kunjalo. Ngamanye izikhathi, ungakwazi ukulanda isixazululo se-browser enhle futhi ngemuva kweminyaka eminyakeni eminyakeni ukuthi inkampani esekelwe isixhobo esithathwe, futhi isixazululo yayo lithathwe ukuze zithole idatha nezimali. Lokhu kubaluleke kubasebenzisi , futhi ku-approx. 2.6 million abasebenzisi kwezinye 32 izifundo ze-browser ezisebenza ku-Chrome. I-SwitchyOmega yeCyberhaven I-SwitchyOmega yeCyberhaven I-Cyberhaven yathandathe isivakashi lapho omunye abasebenzi wama-phishing e-imeyili. Umbhalo wabhala ukuthi ingcindezi wama-browser yebhizinisi wahlukanise iziphakamiso ze-Google futhi wabheka ukwelashwa okusheshayo.

Yenza kanye nokuvakashela izindlela zokhuseleko (i-antivirus, i-firewall, njll) kumadivayisi bakho. Ngaphambi kokutholisa uhlobo lwezoftware, ucwaninga nomkhiqizi, ukubukeka, kanye ne-privacy policy. Ngaphezu kwalokho, sicela uchofoze ukubukeka kwayo kanye nesikhathi sokutholisa; ungakwazi ukuthatha inguqulo oluthile. Akukho kuphela ukulayisha izidakamizwa ezivamile ezivela ezivela ezivela ezivela ezivela ezivela ezivela ezivela ezivela ezivela ezivela ezivela ezivela ezivela. Zibonisa njalo izigubhu ezigubha ezigubha zonke, futhi ukunciphisa kwabo ngalinye ukuthi ungakwazi.
