Which steps can Internet browser vendors take to reduce cyber crypto mining attacks?

Colleagues, crypto jacking has become a monumental cyber challenge for cryptocurrency mass adoption. Most crypto jacking attacks target Chrome, Firefox, IE and Safari browsers by adding nefarious scripts, which perform illicit mining unbeknownst to end-users. The Google Play Store and Apple App Store have implemented policies to remove suspicious apps from their online stores. However, this is just one small step. Google, Apple, Microsoft and the Mozilla Foundation all need to proactively integrate tools, which will prevent scripts and related adware. Moreover, a more user-friendly method for automatically pushing security patches to mobile devices and laptop-desktop computers alike. Bottom line: The security and browser software firms have some of the best minds on the planet within the ranks of their employer. We need something comparable to a moonshot commitment to innovate security protection rather than constantly play catch-up to cyber criminals if the cryptocurrency ecosystem is to achieve the credibility needed by investors small and large. Send us your assessment while visiting us today!
