Firefox & Chrome 2011 Most Secure Browser

Firefox & Chrome 2011 Most Secure Browser
  
Google and Mozilla's company should be proud of considering both their browser is Google Chrome and Mozilla's Firefox is not successfully penetrated "Hacker". In the event Pwn2Own, the hackers from around the world tested to test the security of existing browsers, namely Chrome, Firefox, Safari (Apple browser), Internet Explorer 
(Microsoft's browser).
Pwn2Own competition was held in Vancouver, Canada on 9-11 March 2011, and is part of the CanSecWest conference.
This competition has ended and the results:
1). 5 Apple's Safari, the browser security successfully hacked Hackers on the first day.
2). Microsoft's Internet Explorer 8, browser security also successfully hacked a hacker on the first day.
3). 9 made by Google's Chrome & Mozilla Firefox 3.6, the browser security unsuccessful uprooted Hacker.
4. Interestingly both browsers (Chrome & Firefox) that have a high security is to use Open Source.
As I quoted from Kompas.com, these results make the mutual interaction between the parties in the form of unrequited tweets Google with Mozilla Party, tweetnya following contents:
From the Google:
"I love Pwn2Own! Safari and IE8 broken on the first day, but not with Chrome, "writes Matt Cutts, head of Google's web spam team, in your Twitter account during the first day of the contest is finished. The hope lasted until the contest ends because Chrome was nevertheless successfully penetrated.
From the Mozilla:
"Whew, Firefox survived at # Pwn2Own 2011. This is not a big success, but I'm still glad to hear it, "said Brendan Eich, CTO of Mozilla, on his Twitter account to comment on the good news. Do not forget, Mozilla's boss also congratulated the team of Google Chrome passed the next tweet.
Reply from the Google:
"Both browsers that survive are equally open source, have a rewards program, have inherent security teams, better and faster improvement. Coincidence? "Wrote Chris Evans, an engineer on Chrome security team.
Indeed, it is appropriate that Google's Chrome 9 artificial pride, considering they had also once held a similar competition, and Google is challenging hackers to break besutannya browser must have prepared an attractive prize money and a notebook for those who can break down the browser chrome 9.
At this time the competition held in Canada, also held a competition to break the security of mobile operating systems, which exist in the iPhone4, Torch Blackberry, Android, and Windows 7 Phone. And the result IOS operating system security on the iPhone 4 and Blackberry Torch successfully penetrated, while Android and Windows 7 Phone can last from Hacker attacks.
Hopefully this information can be useful for you, especially for security in the browser and selecting the most resistant phone gadgets from Hacker attacks.
