Firefox is the only browser that received top marks in a recent audit carried out by Germany's cyber-security agency – the German Federal Office for Information Security (or the Bundesamt für Sicherheit in der Informationstechnik – BSI). The BSI tested Mozilla Firefox 68 (ESR), Google Chrome 76, Microsoft Internet Explorer 11, and Microsoft Edge 44. The tests did not include other browsers like Safari, Brave, Opera, or Vivaldi. The audit was carried out using rules detailed in a guideline for "modern secure browsers" that the BSI published last month, in September 2019. The BSI normally uses this guide to advise government agencies and private sector companies on what browsers are safe to use. Read the article at ZDNet.
