NSS Labs: Internet Explorer Still Better At Blocking Malware Than Chrome, Firefox
Internet Explorer 8 and 9 both block more socially engineered malware than Chrome, Firefox, Opera or Safari. At least, that's what the Web Browser Group Test Socially-Engineered Malware Q3 2010 report from NSS Labs says. The results are similar to NSS Labs' previous reports on the subject. Past browser testing reports from NSS Labs were reported to have been commissioned by Microsoft. I'm no longer able to find any disclosure about this in these reports.
So, should you scrap those plans to deploy Chrome in the enterprise you made earlier this evening? Not necessarily. These results are focused on the browsers' native ability to block malware downloads - not the overall security of each browser.
