So many ways are there to do secure browsing on chrome. Let’s discuss some of them below:

Use HTTPS everywhere

I always use extensions very carefully because one extension can ruin all your browsing experience in chrome and one can make. So, I prefer Https everywhere extension which serves me best without disturbing my chrome browsing experience. It is improving with the new updates. You must use this extension in your chrome browser for secure browsing.

Use A VPN

Surfing on the internet is not safe nowadays. So, we should use VPN (Virtual Private Network) which do not allow anyone to trace our working and IP address. There are so many VPN service providers who don’t maintain any record. They just take their payments and don’t save our details that what we have surfed and all.

Control javascript

So many hackers and ad servers are using javascript. So, there is option of disabling Java script in Google Chrome using which we can block the Java script on all sites and whitelist those sites which are secure. We can block the JavaSript using the following steps:

1. Click on the three line on the top right corner of the chrome browser.
2. First, click on settings and then advance settings.
3. Now, Choose Content settings under privacy
4. Change JavaScript to ‘Do not allow any site to run JavaScript.
5. Now, click on Manage exceptions and Add the list of URLs of sites that use JavaScript which you trust.

The best way to secure chrome is Blocking the Javascript.

Chrome settings for Improved Security
