How Browsers Protect You

Modern browsers have built-in defenses that work quietly in the background:

• Site isolation runs each site in its own process, so a malicious page cannot reach data in your other tabs
• Certificate checks verify a site's security certificate is genuine, warning you when a connection may be intercepted
• Sandboxing walls off website code, so even hostile JavaScript cannot touch your files or camera

This is why updates matter — each one strengthens these boundaries against newly discovered attacks.
