      Installing the Google Chrome Extension

      How to enable the Google Chrome extension with CultureAI

      Our Chrome extension allows you to track and monitor your employees security behaviour while using Chrome.

      Our browser extension looks for corporate email login attempts using emails and passwords to understand what software applications your people are using, and can then utilise the security notification tools to course correct any potentially risky behaviours real time via email/slack/teams/meta workplace.

      In this guide we'll go over how to install the extension directly from your CultureAI dashboard Intune, or Group Policy

      Good to know

      • You need to be on a minimum of Chrome Version 98 for the extension to function
      • The extension only tracks corporate emails. It would track joebloggs@companyname.com, but, it would not track joebloggs@hotmail.com

      1. Platform user or above access (e.g. access to login to https://platform.culture.ai)
