Using Tor Browser's security slider for safer visits

One setting can remove a lot of risk with little effort.

  • Staying safe
  • 4 parts
  • Checked

1Standard

All features are on. Pages look normal but scripts run freely.

2Safer

Scripts are limited on non-HTTPS pages and some fonts and media are blocked.

3Safest

Scripts are disabled by default. Some pages may break, but exposure is minimal.

4A sensible default

Start with Safer and lower it only if something you need stops working.
