[QUOTE="Trident, post: 1037181, member: 99014"] Same, the article instead focuses on sandboxing and other Chrome security features, many of which we’ve been reading about since 2008-2009. It’s like the Apple vs Windows comparisons that go like “Oh yeah, Apple has GateKeeper but then Microsoft has SmartScreen, Apple designs both the software and hardware so this gives them an advantage” and all these facts we’ve known for long. Nothing useful to learn. Lately there has been an increase in the number of Chrome exploits. The Chromium engine is very widely deployed and as such is extremely targeted. These exploits are normally short lived and quite expensive. Still though, the number of CVEs reported in Firefox is double the number of that in Chrome.
