Special Forums Cybersecurity Dedicate browser for secure online banking? Post 302575281 by Rolo on Monday 21st of November 2011 07:32:32 AM
Old 11-21-2011
Last week, I've found out that Fortress Linux has released a secure Linux OS that is called the "Secure Browsing Edition". It only includes a hardened web browser.

This browser has a smart protection system against evil scripts and cookies. And it seems to be the only browser that forces TLS 1.2/SSL 3.3 encryption, while all the available web browsers in my Ubuntu install only use TLS 1.0, which was cracked recently. (Google for TLS cracked). Besides, I don't trust Ubuntu anymore after my system was infected by a root-kit last week. Rather go for a live system like this one.

I now use the Fortress Linux secure browsing edition to do my online banking and more. It's fast and it has an "Apple" look window manager. It boots in a matter of seconds.

For some reason I cannot post an URL, but their website is:
www fortresslinux org

Maybe someone else could provide the link here.
