If you’re a Chrome, Firefox or Edge user you probably don’t give a second thought to alternative browsers. But if you’re in search of one that places an emphasis on security and privacy Avast Secure browser is worth considering a glance. The browser that is based on Chromium offers a click for reference VPN along with ad blocking and other features.

You can customize the settings of the ad-blocker and activate strict blocking mode to block the most persistent ads. It also supports the uBlock Origin plug-in, which includes dynamic filters as well as third-party lists my response to provide better control. Its phishing protection keeps your information safe from fraudulent websites while its banking mode protects your passwords, credit card details and other sensitive data from prying eyes.

Tab grouping is another feature that helps you navigate through multiple tabs by keeping them organized. It also syncs bookmarks and history across devices to allow you to continue browsing the same place you left off on a different device. It also blocks online ads to increase the speed of loading websites.

Avast’s web browser appears almost like Google Chrome. It allows you to import all your bookmarks, configuration settings, and other features that you can choose to add. The only drawback is that it sends usage statistics and crash reports to Avast’s servers, which you can change at secure://settings/importData. It’s a great web browser with plenty of privacy and security features.
