Browser Extension Version 16.10.0

Released July 2024

Primary Improvements

Record Creation in Extension Tab

We've introduced new safeguards to user data with the addition of a highly secure Extension Tab.

Now, attempting to create a record from any on-site UI will open a new tab, where information can be entered with increased security.

This includes record creation from field icon prompts, fill prompts and the right-click context menu. You can find visual examples of the various workflows below.

Example of creating a new record for Target.com

Extension Tab Navigation

Any content entered in a website's username or password fields will be automatically populated in the Extension Tab's new record form.

Once a new record is saved in the Extension Tab, you will be automatically routed back to the website you were on and the Extension Tab will close.

Upon returning to the website, the username and password fields will be auto-filled with the values of your newly created record.

Password Generation Prompts

Keeper will no longer suggest new passwords on website login pages, because we assume you likely already have a password you'd like to enter.

This prompt will continue to appear on new account registration pages, where it's more likely to add value.

Simplified Prompts

We've streamlined the "New Record" prompt that appears when there are no suggested records for a site.

Username Suggestions

Keeper will no longer suggest users' emails on websites, which previously occurred when clicking on a website's username field.

This eliminates the risk of username data being compromised via third-party clickjacking.

This functionality has been improved upon and made available in the Extension Tab.

Creating Address & Payment Records

The extension tab can be used to create address and payment records as well. This can be done through the use of Keeper's context menu by right clicking anywhere on a website.

Other Improvements

New ARAM Event

An "Open Record" ARAM event will be triggered when users open records in the Keeper Browser Extension.

This event will not be triggered upon opening the edit record or create record screens, filling a record, or changing a password.

Screen Reader

Made the readout for the extension's search bar clearer and more simple, to increase accessibility.
