Browse with confidence: Microsoft Edge’s security boost

July 6, 2023

Did you know that a single click on a malicious link can put your business’s valuable data at risk? With cyber criminals targeting businesses constantly, staying ahead of online security threats is crucial.

That’s why we’re thrilled to share that Microsoft is working on a significant security update for its Edge browser, designed to deliver enhanced protection to every user.

The upcoming update introduces new security features while strengthening existing ones. You may have already experienced the convenience of Password Monitor, which alerts you if any of your saved passwords have been compromised, prompting you to change them immediately.

Additionally, SmartScreen technology acts as your shield against phishing scams and malware. By cross-referencing websites against a database of known malicious sites and analyzing URLs for suspicious patterns, it provides a warning before you proceed to potentially harmful websites.

Why should you care about these security updates?

It’s simple: using a less secure browser exposes you to a wide range of online threats. Cybercriminals continuously exploit vulnerabilities in software, making it crucial to stay updated with the latest security measures.

Moreover, no one wants to deal with the aftermath of a cyber attack. Whether it’s financial losses, identity theft, or the hassle of cleaning up the mess, the consequences can be devastating. By choosing a secure browser like Edge, you significantly reduce your risk of falling victim to such attacks.

We understand that not everyone is an expert in cybersecurity, which is why Microsoft has made it effortless to stay safe without requiring a computer science degree. The new security features are built-in and user-friendly, eliminating the need for complex configurations. With Edge, you can browse the web with peace of mind.

If you haven’t already tried Edge, we encourage you to give it a go. And if you need assistance optimizing your Office 365 suite for your business, our team is here to help. Don’t compromise on security – get in touch today.
