There is now a way that Microsoft has created to provide "safe browser" space for the users. Since confidential information like passwords, email addresses, and locations can now be leaked out easily, there is a feature in the browser where you can know if there is such a case.

Chromium developers have previously implemented it. Window and macOS users will now have a necessary mitigation measure for a possible attack especially to the kids who are careless online.

The new feature will also extend help not only to the vulnerable children but also to their parents who should continuously explore it to know more how convenient and secured it is to use.

Currently, people usually prefer finding a powerful password manager even though there are no recorded cases of its shortage. However, users could seek an alternative through special software, but in some cases, they first need to avail themselves of the product subscriptions which are costly sometimes.

To solve this issue, web browsers have devised a method of preserving the capability of a good password manager. The feature works the same as it: managing your passwords conveniently.

That's why Microsoft Edge has decided to introduce Password Monitor, the latest browser feature which resembles a password check made by Google Chrome.

For the exciting part, the Password Monitor in the Microsoft browser will issue a warning to the users if there are instances that the passwords are kept in the browser. Additionally, it will also detect if they are leaked and will request you to change them immediately.

Besides the addition of an effective password manager feature, Microsoft Edge has also brought a more efficient web searching. Through this smart search feature, you do not need anymore to recall the name of the website that you previously visited.
