Chrome Extension

The Sonatype extension for Chromium browsers helps developers identify open source risks and policy violations in real time — right from Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge. Connect the Chrome extension to your Sonatype Platform to scan components as you browse public open source registries like Maven Central, npm, PyPI, and more.

Works With:   Sonatype-platform-logo-nav

Chrome + Sonatype Platform

This extension connects directly to your Sonatype Platform instance, giving developers the information they need to make secure choices at the point of discovery. Whether browsing Java, JavaScript, or Python packages, the extension enforces your organization’s open source policies and shifts security left — before code ever enters the build.

Explore how Sonatype’s browser extension integrates seamlessly with Chrome and Microsoft Edge to deliver real-time component intelligence. Gain visibility into vulnerabilities and policy violations without leaving the registry page.
