On a related note--how many people have initiated a move away from IE to Firefox/Opera etc in a corporate environment, due to the perception(is it JUST a perception or reality based?) that IE is less secure/more prone to exploits?
I am working on developing best pratices for deploying Firefox to make web browsing more safer. Basically the idea is to use Firefox + key security plugins and publish it on a citrix box. Publishing on a citrix box prevents the user from destroying their desktops by unintentionally downloading spyware/adware/malware . Citrix acts as a "graphical firewall". Here is a paper that describes it in details: http://www.xml-dev.com/xml/SafeBrowsing/ -- Saqib Ali, CISSP Support http://www.capital-punishment.net ----------- "I fear, if I rebel against my Lord, the retribution of an Awful Day (The Day of Resurrection)" Al-Quran 6:15 ----------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
