Internet Explorer 8 Beta 2 Screencast: More Secure and Private Browsing

In this screencast I talk about how IE 8 is more secure, how IE 8 provides many teachable moments in helping protect everyone while they browse.  Overall IE 8 has increased security, privacy and control of your data and information through its improved SmartScreen®Filter (a next generation of phishing and malware detection), domain name highlighting and InPrivate Browsing.  What makes IE 8 fantastic is that it balances security and privacy with functionality, especially with its enhanced deletion of browsing history.   Lastly with IE 8’s cross site scripting filter (XSS), we are helping to provide a security solution in the browser from a vulnerability that is detected on the server which is raising IE 8’s security measures well beyond the traditional boundary of browser security. 

So take a look at this exciting screencast here:
