Most secure web Browser

Most web browsers are using the same Chromium browser engine or Mozilla engine which just have different skins and features. The part of the browser that actually renders the website content is the same on many browsers. Even Safari started out using an open source browser engine, then modified & customized it. Creating a browser rendering engine is hard & time consuming work especially as the web is constantly changing.

So you basically have a choice of a Chromium based browser, or a Mozilla based browser, or using Safari. There may be one other browser engine still in use, but I believe it is very limited to open source software (what Safari originally based itself on).

It is how you use your browser that makes it secure or not. For example, always use HTTPS rather than HTTP.

HTTPS uses TLS (SSL) to encrypt normal HTTP requests and responses, and to digitally sign

those requests and responses. As a result, HTTPS is far more secure than HTTP.
