Your choice of browser matters


The document Security in Mozilla and Related Browsers, translated by Czilla from the original Security and Mozilla browsers, gives a good account of how today’s browsers approach security differently.

Much has been written about browser security, especially Internet Explorer’s, in light of the latest security problems. Things have reached the point where all Internet Explorer users are being advised to switch browsers. The document is sympathetic to Mozilla, but it gives ordinary readers a clear, accessible and impartial look at how today’s browsers protect them.

No browser can offer 100 percent protection, just as no set of locks and keys can make our homes completely secure. But how a browser is designed and built can make an enormous difference to the level of protection users get.
