Turning Google Chrome into a Security Fortress With Add-Ons

A lot of people have identified Google Chrome as the ideal browser thanks to its speed, expansion options and multi-platform opportunities. As it’s now being widely used, the security aspects of the browser have come under scrutiny.

So what can you do to enhance Chrome and make it a fortress against any unwanted intrusions? Here are some of the enhancements available to download that can really make an impact on the overall security of your browser.

Adblock Plus is a really useful tool that gets rid of the constant barrage of advertisements we often sift through when searching the web. It also provides a malware protection service and keeps your surfing private and protected.

HTTPS Everywhere is a must if you’re a regular user of the internet (who isn’t). Your surfing will be automatically navigated, giving you the simplest route to a safe and secure Chrome experience.

If you’re just looking for something that tells you which search results can be trusted, Chrome has Web of Trust available for installation. You’ll know a site is safe to use if it has the Web of Trust logo next to it. Simple.

There you have it. Getting hold of these useful add-ons can really improve the security of your web searches, so make sure you get hold of them as soon as you declare Chrome your browser of choice.
