Extensions are a great way to enhance the browsing experience. However, some extensions ask for broad permissions that allow access to sensitive data such as browser cookies or history. Last year, we
introduced the
Chrome Apps & Extensions Developer Tool, which provides an improved developer experience for debugging apps and extensions. The newest version of the tool, available today, lets power users audit any app or extension and get visibility into the precise actions that it's performing.

The security of Apps should be of high priority to everyone given the exponential increase of malicious Apps and now in abundance.
There is an App called CheckMyApps on Google Play which undertakes a forensic analysis of all the Apps on your device and reports on them in three categories:
1. Privacy.
2. Financial Losses.
3. Security.
Then you, as the device owner, can make a decision about whether you want you continue to have these Apps on your mobile device. In effect you will be determining your own security policy
For corporates there is also a CheckMyApps solution + an AuditMyApps solution available from Pradeo Security Systems ... a 2014 Gartner "visionary" in the Applications Security Testing Magic Quadrant. These solutions check Apps on devices from both a static and dynamic perspective and have them checked by 24 industry standard virus checkers and then against the companies security policy in almost real-time (2-mins max). Any App on a device will not be allowed to function if it does not meet with the security policy.
