Bordonbert 0 Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 Hi guys. We have Internet Security 13.2.18.0 in on two separate machines, one Win10 and the other Win7, both using Chrome and both have this same problem. Very occasionally we may get a potentially vulnerable site opening in a secure browser via Eset. Most of the time we do not get that and the site opens in the current instance of Chrome. This is for obvious monetary sites like Paypal and Halifax Banking etc. Sites are accessed from Lastpass password manager. (Yes, it's going in favour of Eset's manager as soon as the current licences run out and I upgrade). I searched in the forum and found a reference to unticking "Setup -> Security Tools -> Advanced Setup -> Web & Email ->SSL TLS '+' -> Exclude Communication With Trusted Domains". I assume this will allow Eset to tell me when it was setting up the Secure Browser system? Others say this cured the issue for them but this has made no difference to me. When we access say Halifax's login site we simply get it opening in the current instance of Chrome with no signs of a secure browser setup. I have checked and the correct matching URL is listed in the Eset whitelist under "Setup -> Security Tools -> Banking & Payment Protection (Cogwheel)", and that item has its "Secured Browser" option selected in the list. I would be grateful if someone can point me at what I could be missing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please do not hijack someone else's topics. Mixing different things in one topic is not a good practice. Please always create a new topic if you have a question unrelated to what is being discussed. As to your question, please read https://help.eset.com/glossary/en-US/technology_online_protection.html: The use of HTTPS encrypted communication is necessary to perform protected browsing. To use secure browsing, your internet browser should satisfy the minimum requirements listed below: •Internet Explorer 8.0.0.0 •Microsoft Edge 83.0.0.0 •Google Chrome 64.0.0.0 •Firefox 24.0.0.0 Other browsers are not supported either because it's technically not possible or they are not popular enough among our users. You can contact your local ESET support with your request. The more users request it, the more likely we'll support it unless there are technical obstacles.

That should not happen. Do you mean that if you attempt to open an Internet banking website in the secured browser a different potentially malicious page opens in the secured browser instead? 11 hours ago, Bordonbert said: Then we access say Halifax's login site we simply get it opening in the current instance of Chrome with no signs of a secure browser setup. Please provide the url of the Internet banking page, we'll check if it's supposed to open in the secured browser. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
