Today, NSS Labs, an independent, information security research and testing organization, released a report that finds Internet Explorer offers the best protection against socially-engineered malware.
Source: NSS Labs, October 2010 - based on latest browser versions as of date of testing
with the recent NSS findings, “Microsoft is showing, with their current browser technologies, that security for end user browsing is important to them”
The difference in performance between IE8 and IE9 above comes from the addition of innovative features such as Smart Screen Application Reputation. This new feature for Internet Explorer 9 adds an additional layer of protection by warning users when they attempt to download a higher risk application.
download Internet Explorer 9 Beta to see how you can enjoy a more beautiful – and trusted web - experience.
