Protect yourself with the latest anti-fingerprinting, webcam protection, and instant Hack Check features when you update Avast Secure Browser to version 73.0.

How often do you sit at your computer without a browser window open? If you’re like us, the answer is never. If we’re on our machines, there is always at least one window open to the wilds of the internet. That’s why we created Avast Secure Browser — we realized it would be a good idea to frontload that window to the internet with tools to protect your privacy, strengthen your security, and – because we just couldn’t help ourselves – amp up your speed.

A common concern that most users share today is how much they are tracked online. Your browser has a fingerprint, just like you do. And, your fingerprint can be used by companies to track everything you do online. To minimize your fingerprint, you need to know what a fingerprint is and what is collected so that you can do something about it.

What is a browser fingerprint?

A fingerprint is a compilation of various settings and aspects of your browser, including:

* List of installed plugins
* List of available fonts
* Browser type and version
* Time zone
* Screen resolution
* Screen color depth
* Cookie settings
* Do Not Track settings
* Local storage settings
* Session storage settings
* HTML Canvas element rendering data
* WebGL rendering data
* AdBlock presence
* User agent
* Request header(s)

Although many users share some of the same individual properties, when you combine them all for one user, it becomes a unique “fingerprint” for that person — especially the Canvas Rendering data which adds significant uniqueness. So, with version 73.0, we have gone next-level when it comes to fingerprinting.
