Three privacy-focused browsers compared

Description

If you love to go online then safety should be your priority.  You must know which browser is safe and secure. As per the NSS Labs' 2013 Browser Security Comparative Analysis, Internet Explorer tops the charts. In some other reports, Firefox topped the charts. 

Solution:

Here, we are discussing the three browsers that can be considered safe:

SRWare Iron- It doesn’t share any information with Google unlike Chrome.

Comodo Dragon- It offers other security and private features.

Dooble- It doesn’t resemble with Chrome at all and have distinct tabbed interface.

Apart from this, one thing is common that all these browsers run JavaScript and accept third-party cookies. Allowing JavaScript site-by-site is not a big irritation. For disabling JavaScript and blocking third-party cookies in Chrome, click “Settings” icon available in the top right corner of the browser window and choose “Settings.” Then scroll and select “Show advanced settings” and click “Content Settings” button under Privacy. Below “Cookies”, choose "Block third-party cookies and site data” and select the option of “Do not allow any site to run JavaScript” given under JavaScript. After that, click “Done.”

SRWare Iron

It has three other advantages that are built-in ad blocker, an easy-to-customize User Agent, and 12 preview thumbnails. But, its default settings allow third-party cookies. Apart from sharing information with Google, it doesn’t have any other advantage over Chrome.

Comodo Dragon

It has built-in Web Inspector and PrivDog features available on the right side of the address bar. With WebInspector, you can perform an online scan of the current page for malware and malicious activity. 

Block and unblock privacy threats in various categories using PrivDog feature. Also, you get 10GB of free online storage. Talking about its advanced security features, phishing and malware protection are there. Using its “Clear at exit” button, you can delete your browsing and download history, cookies and other stuff.

Dooble

It avoids Google Chrome interference in the settings and it uses HTTPS by default. But, when you actually test it you will find the option unchecked. Dooble lets JavaScripts run for opening alerts, hiding the menu bar or opening a new window. Along with blocking third-party cookies, you can allow those cookies that are already accepted or customize the list of cookie-blocking exceptions. By disabling all JavaScripts, you can add sites to your exceptions list.

Clean up your public Internet profile

Description

Want to remove your private information from the sites? Then this tutorial can help you.

Solution:

Firstly, you have to visit the site, search your name and make sure that you are there. After that, find the site’s privacy policy page and go through it carefully.

Let’s take an example of Intelius. Visit the company’s Privacy Policy page and go to the section “How to remove your Information from the Intelius Public Records Databases.” In that, you will find an online form.

Discussing the form, you have to picture your driving license, cross out the license number and upload the photo to it. You will find the other two fields easy. One will ask your email address and the optional third field can be left blank.

After this, you will get the response informing you that they have received your request. Also, they will provide you the confirmation number.

Then you will get an email saying "Your opt-out request has been completed."

With Spokeo, it is easier as its privacy Policy page will direct you to their “Remove A Listing” tool. This tool asks for your profile URL, email address and a CAPTHCA to prove that you are human. Click “Remove This Listing” button and you will get "Please check your email for further instructions." You will get an email in which the directory that has been removed is listed.

But, your private information may still pop up in the Internet searches. For more from the XpertCrew^TM team, please follow us on Twitter @Techvedic or contact Techvedic’s computer support helpdesk, as per below contact-details:

Description

Without taking special precautions, anything you send by email is not safe. It is true with Gmail service as Google uses the content of your messages to target advertising. If you are thinking to give up Gmail then no need to do so. Here we have another solution.

When you send any email, it is encrypted with SSL but only for the first leg of its journey. Although a free, open-source known as OpenPGP exists yet, it needs to be universally accepted. But, it is not going to happen. You have to find another solution. Well, the easiest method is to keep sensitive stuff out of your email. Also, you can send most of the messages without privacy worries but when you are sending something confidential then make sure to encrypt it. This encryption is not as easy as it sounds. Your recipient should have the compatible software as well as your password. 
Apart from this, you can also skip the email service and can use another service called Sendinc. For this, both you and your recipient need to have your own accounts. Moreover, you don’t need to share your password with the recipient. But, always keep strong passwords.

3 essential techniques to protect your online privacy

Description

Online Privacy is very important. Hackers are trying to breach email, Facebook, and Twitter passwords. Thus, you need to keep your online privacy protected. 

Solution:

Here are three ways to do it:

Secure the line



The most dangerous mistake which you can make is to connect to an email or any other private accounts using public Wi-Fi. But, you can improve your privacy by using VPNs as it is an encoded tunnel for maintaining your privacy. There are many VPNs that can bypass region blocks for sites like Amazon, Hulu, Netflix, and BBC’s iPlayer. Sweden-based IPredator is a solid VPN choice. Another choice is Private Internet Access which is safe as it claims not to log any of your traffic. 



Don’t keep private data in Cloud



There are many online file-syncing services including Dropbox, Google Drive, and SkyDrive. But, this data is unencrypted or protected with a layer of encryption beyond your control. If you are saving data to cloud then it is better to use encrypted cloud storage service. Before sending it to Dropbox, you can encrypt the data by yourself using free software such as BoxCryptor or the open-sourceTrueCrypt. The two popular encrypted storage services are SpiderOak and Wuala. Make sure you don’t forget the password of SpiderOak and Wuala. In order to get maximum privacy, access your files via SpiderOak desktop client. Further, Wuala also encrypt and decrypt data on a mobile device as it handles on PC.




Be secured using two-factor authentication



The foremost way to defend your online services is to use strong passwords of ten characters. Also, you can go for two-factor authentication for Google, Facebook and other service that offers it. It enables you to secure your account by using short numeric code in addition to your password. This authenticator works with accounts like Dropbox, Evernote, Google, LastPass, and Microsoft. But, Facebook offers its own code generator. For this, go to Facebook newsfeed, click settings cog in the upper right corner and select “Account Settings.” After that, go to “Security” and under this look for “Code Generator” menu option. Then click “Edit” to the far right of that option. Now, click the link in the first two words of the sentence “Set up another way to get security codes.” QR code appears in a pop-up window. By opening Authenticator, navigate to the “Add Entry” option, select “Scan Barcode” and then point your phone’s camera at the QR code on your monitor. Your phone will identify your Facebook account code and add it to Authenticator. Enter a Facebook code from Authenticator.
