There are a plenty of browsers available now. But people go only for the best one of the big three: Internet Explorer, Firefox, or Chrome.

But which is best among them ?, stays as an ambiguous question.

Each browser has its own mechanism for its efficient performance.

But Google stands as an highlighted one when coming to security and for a safer browsing.

Google’s Chrome browser is safe for its two reasons:

1. First, it’s the only browser to use sandboxing as its primary defense mechanism. This method combines a JavaScript virtual machine with an OS-level sandbox to prevent successful attacks against the browser’s rendering engine from affecting a user’s file system.

2. Second, Google updates the Adobe Flash and Acrobat Reader modules itself. So if you’re running the latest version of Chrome, you’re running the latest, most secure versions of Flash and Acrobat Reader available.

But we’re just getting started. JavaScript vulnerabilities—including blatant attacks that rely on a user’s cooperation to work—can just as easily affect your browser.

If you’re using Firefox, grab an extension called NoScript, which will allow you to disable a page’s plugin elements (including Java Script and Flash!) by default, unless you trust the site enough to give them a go.

 Chrome doesn’t have an add-on for the same feature, but you can disable Java Script by default in the browser’s Under the Hood settings section.

And if you want to specifically allow a site’s JavaScript to function, just click the associated X icon in the browser’s address bar to set up site-specific trust.
