Chrome's strict site Isolation and Meltdown web attackssteemCreated with Sketch.

in #crypto6 years ago

Google on January 23rd will release a new version of Chrome which will include mitigation against web attacks that use CPU exploits like meltdown.

In the meantime, you can implement an experimental feature called Site Isolation within your Chrome browser. Site Isolation may take more resources on your PC since it does not group websites into a single process. Site Isolation separates each website visited into separate instances. In theory this should make it more difficult for malicious website to access information from another website.

How to turn on Site Isolation:

  1. Type or copy and paste chrome://flags/#enable-site-per-process into Chrome browser’s URL field.
  2. Find Strict site Isolation and click on Enable.
  3. Click on Relaunch Now
