Web browsing is an essential method for employees to access business tools and systems, from their laptops or mobile devices, no matter where they are. Cyber threats use it as one of the most popular ways to steal information and gain access systems.
There are many elements that contribute to secure web browsing, including ensuring that your browser is running the most current version, enabling features that block pop-ups as well as other security threats, ensuring that extensions and plugins are safe (especially those downloaded from questionable sources), and observing how websites handle encrypted communication with the browser. It is also important to educate employees on the safe use of browsers and have to report any suspicious actions to the security team’s administrative staff whenever they can.
The best browsers to browse securely on the internet support secure communication between the server and client. This can be accomplished through HTTPS, or more commonly with a lock icon which signifies that a site uses encrypted communication.
