About this extension
Go truly incognito with IPVanish Secure Browser. No activity occurs on your device, shielding you from daily online threats.
Read the publisher’s full description
IPVanish Secure Browser is designed to provide a secure, anonymous browsing experience. Whether you're working, shopping, or streaming, our Microsoft Edge add-on offers a range of features to enhance your online activities and protect you while using the web. How it Works When you use the IPVanish Secure Browser add-on, IPVanish opens a virtual browser window specifically for you on our servers in the cloud. You’ll access this virtual browser via an interactive video feed from your standard Edge browser. Whatever you type, click, scroll, and copy/paste on your device will be replicated to the browser in the IPVanish cloud. Because your searches and clicks are replicated remotely, no activity occurs on your device. This shields your device from all threats, including malicious links, malware, tracking, and more. Additionally, no browsing history, cookies, or site data will be stored on your device when Secure Browser runs. This is similar to InPrivate mode, but IPVanish Secure Browser goes further. Unlike InPrivate mode, third parties can’t see which websites you visit, advertisers can’t track your IP address or device information through fingerprinting, and malware can’t be downloaded onto your device. Key Features: * Virus Protection: No activity takes place on your machine, so any potential malicious link you click or virus you download will not be able to infect your device. Instead, it will only be downloaded to the server in the cloud before it is quarantined and deleted. * Automatic Browsing History Removal: Your browsing history isn’t stored on your local device; it isn’t stored on ours either. When you close the Secure Browser window, all information from the session is deleted from our server immediately. * Digital Fingerprinting Prevention: Websites and advertisers track users through digital fingerprinting, collecting data like device type, OS version, browser version, and more. With the Secure Browser, you access sites via an interactive video feed, keeping your personal data hidden. If you don't log into services, your activity remains untraceable. * Ten Different Locations: We currently offer ten virtual browsing locations, including the USA, Canada, the UK, Australia, and various spots across Europe. Choose where your Secure Browser cloud window opens and surf with confidence. * User-Friendly Experience: Our intuitive and easy-to-use extension makes it easy to navigate the web. Simply install the extension and click the IPVanish Secure Browser icon to turn it on. How to Get Started: * Install the Add-on: Download and install IPVanish Secure Browser from the Microsoft Edge Add-ons store to your Edge browser. * Click the Icon: Simply click the IPVanish Secure Browser icon to activate it. * Enjoy Secure Browsing: Experience the many benefits and peace of mind the Secure Browser provides. Please note: In order for IPVanish Secure Browser to run the Secure Browser interactive video feed and provide Copy & Paste functionality, we need to ask your browser for permission to "Read & Change all data on all websites" along with permission to "Modify data that you copy and paste." You will therefore see the aforementioned requests when installing the service on your browsers. Rest assured that when using IPVanish Secure Browser no browsing history, cookies, or site data will be stored; you won’t be tracked by us or third parties. Download the IPVanish Secure Browser Add-on Today Take control of your online security and anonymity with the IPVanish Secure Browser add-on. With features designed to keep your data safe and your browsing experience anonymous, it’s never been easier to protect yourself on the web. Download the add-on today and browse with the confidence you deserve.
