Controls of Browser Vulnerabilities

The following precautions are some of the ways to overcome web browser vulnerabilities:

  1. Configure the browser with appropriate settings; consult experts if required.
  2. Keep the Web Browser regularly updated with Updates and Security Patches.
  3. Disable or uninstall unnecessary or untrusted add-ons/extensions.
  4. Understand the errors thrown up by the browser and then act on them appropriately. If something isn't fully clear, do not simply act on the same – consult experts.
  5. Configure your operating system properly: change the default settings to appropriate settings.
  6. Have a well-known and reputed anti-virus installed on your operating system.
