Click to expand

A system restart is required to enable the full functionality of the Safe Banking & Browsing feature after installing ESET Security Ultimate, ESET Smart Security Premium, ESET Internet Security, or ESET Small Business Security. Using the secured browser without restarting will protect users from potential security risks, but it will not encrypt the data from keyloggers.


Solution

Devices with ARM Processors

On devices with an ARM processor, Safe Banking & Browsing is only supported by Firefox and Microsoft Edge.

Safe Banking & Browsing ensures that all online transactions are protected in a trusted and secure environment. By default, Secure all browsers is enabled, and all supported browsers start in a secure mode. This enables you to browse the internet, access internet banking, and make online purchases and transactions in one secured browser automatically.
