[b]End Result:
- The Safe Zone Browser would allow the use of either the LastPass Chrome Extension or the Roboform Lite Chrome Extension.
Or - The Safe Zone Browser would Integrate Avast EasyPass
[/b]
Why?
I agree that the Safe Zone Browser being Chrome based is wise for a secure environment.
I agree that not allowing any ole plugin or extension is wise for protecting the customer.
I agree that by not allowing just any 3rd party extension or plugin, this protects customers from keyloggers or other malware that might “lift” the customer’s password entries or sensitive personal data.
BUT!
Surely Avast agrees that part of secure browsing is the use of long and strong passwords.
And surely Avast agrees that clipboard loggers Do exist.
As such it just is not convenient or practical to mentally remember and type each character of a long and strong password into each site we visit with the Safe Zone Browser.
On the other hand, if Avast either integrated Avast EasyPass into the SafeZone Browser, or if Avast allowed the limited use of LastPass or Roboform Lite Chrome extension into the SafeZone Browser; then customers would have a more user friendly way of auto entering passwords at various sites they visit.
As of now I rarely use the SafeZone browser because there is no viable way to enter long strong passwords.
And copy and paste of passwords from an outside source should be discouraged as doing so can expose a customer to data loss from potential clipboard loggers.
=====================================
As a side note I find in quite interesting that Avast EasyPass interface is identical in style and layout to Roboform
Clearly Avast has “borrowed” EasyPass from Roboform or used a Roboform API.
As such integration of these into the SafeZone browser should be a no-brainer for a future feature.
Thanks for your consideration…
