Push Security review (2026): features, pros and cons, and what to check before you buy
Browser-extension security platform that finds SaaS accounts, shadow AI use and weak logins as employees use them.
Our take for buyers
Push Security is a browser-extension platform that finds SaaS accounts, shadow AI use and weak logins as employees use them. It suits security-led teams that want visibility from the browser, including on unmanaged and BYOD devices without MDM. Reviewers praise near-complete visibility into SaaS in use. It is a security tool, not a finance tool, and pricing is published at $5 per employee per month billed annually.
The trade-off is the extension itself. It only sees browsers where it is installed, and buyers who cannot deploy an extension should skip it. It is not a spend, contract or renewal tool. G2 shows 4.8 from 9 reviews and Capterra shows 5.0 from 4, so treat the ratings as light evidence.

What to test in a Push Security demo or trial
Run the trial with a pilot group across managed and unmanaged devices and compare what it finds against your SSO logs and finance feeds. Reviewers say individual alerts lack context, so check whether the alerts your team gets are actionable. Test shadow AI detection, including agentic browsers and AI prompt and upload monitoring. Try policy enforcement that blocks an unsanctioned tool, and confirm Slack, Teams, SIEM and Okta integrations work. Also test each enrollment method: MDM, direct install, email and self-enrollment.
Questions to ask Push Security before you sign
These are the points Push Security's public pages leave open. Get the answers in writing before procurement signs off.

- Is SCIM provisioning included, or a paid add-on?

Things to know before a demo
- Discovery is from a browser extension, so it sees logins and accounts that SSO and finance feeds miss, but only on browsers where it is installed.
- Works on unmanaged and BYOD devices without MDM.
- Standard plan caps at 500 employees; larger companies go to custom pricing.
- Same price includes the full platform; features are not split by plan.
- Only 9 G2 reviews, so rating is thin evidence.
