Firefox Can Prevent Attacks on the Internet
By admin | October 10, 2009
Mozilla revealed that they would install technology that can help Firefox to stop Internet-based security attacks. According to Mozilla, the technology called the Content Security Policy (CSP) is a technology specification made by Mozilla. The goal for the site and application developers can specify the content on its site or a legitimate application.
This technology will also block any scripts or malicious code that have been added by a hacker who broke through the site or the relevant application. “This is not a trick designed to deal with one type of attack,” said Johnathan Nightingale, Manager of Front-end Development Team, Mozilla, such as VIVAnews quotes from PC Advisor, October 9, 2009. “This can help overcome these sites trouble corss-site scripting, but more than that,” he said. Nightingale said, they now have a way to turn off anything that is dynamic, so any content that is added to the site, if it was in the yard, and they send you something in the header, will be closed.
Firefox allows application developers and content sites to separate the legal and illegal content. With CSP, Firefox will allow the legitimate content to run, and block harmful content. Earlier this year, Eric Lawrance, a Program Manager in Microsoft’s Internet Explorer team says that CSP is a good idea and is a promising approach. Yet he did not say whether Microsoft would support a similar technology in the browser.
