]]> Comment on Internet Explorer aces security test as Google faces accusations by Freddy_G http://www.halbheer.ch/security/2012/02/10/internet-explorer-aces-security-test-as-google-faces-accusations/comment-page-1/#comment-1763 Freddy_G Fri, 10 Feb 2012 20:09:47 +0000 http://www.halbheer.ch/security/?p=2610#comment-1763 Hi Roger, I couldn't agree more with you. We had always complaints, especially before IE 9 was available, that our ERP guys need Firefox because IE performs horrible with some of their Java applications. To be honest, at this time Firefox was ~10 times faster dealing with the Java sites. So for this case we granted a strict exception for the users to use it only for that purpose and without support. (We all know Firefox has no enterprise capabilities at all, nothing comparable to the nice GP integration with IE x) When IE 9 became available, we found out that the Java performance is not as good as Firefoxe's but it was more than acceptable. Next step, as you mentioned risk assessment, was using Applocker to get rid of all the other browser out there. We did do this mainly because we think we have a great patch management and we use much of GPP to apply settings, which is seamless with IE and no other browser in an AD environment. And according to http://www.ie6countdown.com/ people start to be aware that old browser shouldn't be used anymore ;-) Hi Roger,

On this link you will find a system which supports information-theoretic + computational symmetric and computational asymmetric security (and optional privacy) on Windows (like Windows-XP and Windows-7) using true (quantum) randomness.
