ScriptNo and Confusion for Chrome?Part 1 - Kensington Security

An important aspect of securing business data is online privacy. In this era of online tracking, seeking out means to avoid or reduce tracking has become an obsession for many Internet users. Most of our browsers now offer some form of privacy browsing or incognito mode that reduces the ability of sites to track you and also prevents trails of your Web activities from being saved to the local system. Firefox users have also long enjoyed a variety of add-ons and extensions that grant the user more control over tracking technologies and Web sites that rely on scripting for dynamic content.

Recently several new add-ons/extensions for Chrome have become available. I would like to bring two of these to your attention. If you are a Chrome user, these two tools are worth your serious consideration. The first tool is Confusion, the second is ScriptNo. Confusion is mostly just an information tool to help you understand that you are being tracked and who is doing it. ScriptNo is a very powerful tool giving you greater control over scripting and tracking features of various sites.

I think everyone and anyone can benefit from the Confusion tool, as it will not interfere with your current Web habits. However, ScriptNo requires some training and can be a nuisance if you are not willing to severely change you surfing habits and be ready to make individual trust decisions about every site you ever visit. ScriptNo is not for the casual user, it is for the serious Internet enthusiast who is willing to change their behavior to gain greater control over security and privacy.

Check back next week to read my next post with more details about each of these tools you can use.
