The security of user information is one of the pillars on which Google is fully working to implement new functions in its Chrome browser that will help prevent the theft of each user's data, remember that in
Chrome Sensitive Data
Chrome we enter sensitive data such as:
If any of this data is violated, we may be faced with critical privacy situations, for which Chrome has strict isolation from websites. The isolation of websites is responsible for protecting users from the round of information when visiting sites that are not trusted, many times we can accidentally access these sites or be victims of fraud with similar sites, in these cases the Website isolation is responsible for running websites in different processes so as not to leave everything in one place, by activating it, we will prevent malicious sites from being able to bypass the integrated security measures for everything related to theft of information..
Website sandboxing has been enabled by default since Chrome 76 and for Android websites in its version of Chrome 77 and newer.
isolation processes
Some of the processes that work with website isolation are:
- The documents between sites will always be in a different process regardless of the way we are browsing.
- Cross-site data such as HTML, XML, JSON, and PDF files will not be forwarded to a web page process, they will only do so if the server enables the permission.
- Security checks in the browser process are in the ability to detect and terminate a process in case it is not trusted.
TechnoWikis will explain how to use this method to increase the security of Google Chrome..
