Arrow Creating a Safer Web with Content Security Policy


Quote:
One of the new features in Firefox 4 that we are very excited about is Content Security Policy, which is a mechanism that works behind the scenes to prevent some of the more severe web-based attacks against users and websites.

Firefox users don’t have to do anything in order to gain this protection. Simply install Firefox 4 and you will instantly receive all of the benefits that Content Security Policy has to offer. Easy!

Wow, thanks for posting that. So if I'm reading this right, it sounds like they have a type of NoScript functionality built into Firefox 4, and they've added some additional features to thwart other types of attacks. I like!
