MetaMask is an extension for gaining access to your Ethereum wallet. With the help of this extension, you can create and manage your own identity, so when the Dapp will want to write a transaction in your blockchain it will notify you immediately, and only after taking your approval for the transaction it will give confirmation to the blockchain. User can also reject it if he has not done any particular transaction therefore, it gives them a good security level.

One more advantage of MetaMask is that as the user browses from site to site the MetaMask will inform you which site has been engaged regularly in phishing or is an easy target for the phishing.

But for this, you have to grant certain permissions to the extension.
