It’s easy to forget that browsing the web has a risk, as cyber criminals are constantly targeting all businesses using automated tools. Good news – Microsoft is working on a major security update for its Edge browser, bringing enhanced security to everyone using it.
This means that you can browse with less worry about potential cyber threats. With new security features and beefed-up existing ones, Microsoft Edge is making sure that you stay one step ahead of the game.
For example, Edge has got you covered with a Password Monitor feature that alerts you if any of your saved passwords have been compromised in a data breach (so you can change them immediately).
Plus, Edge’s SmartScreen technology helps safeguard you from phishing scams and malware. It checks websites against a list of known malicious sites, as well as analysing URLs for any suspicious patterns or characteristics. If it detects something that’s not right, you’ll be warned before you visit the site.
Why should you care about all these security updates? Using a less secure browser could leave you vulnerable to all sorts of online threats. Cyber criminals are constantly coming up with new ways to exploit weaknesses, so it’s important to stay up-to-date with the latest security measures.
And let’s face it – no one wants to deal with the aftermath of a cyber attack. Whether it’s dealing with financial losses, identity theft, or just the hassle of cleaning up the mess, the consequences of a breach can be HUGE.
