What is JavaScript?

JavaScript is a versital scripting language used extensively by web developers to create the interactive websites that today's web users have come to expect. Because of security concerns, modern web browsers do not allow JavaScript from one website to change settings on another website. Also, JavaScript is never allowed to access the files on a vistor's computer. These limitations have mitigated most of the risk presented by JavaScript. However, malicious programmers continue from time-to-time to find and exploit loopholes in both web browser and website server software. The following tips will help keep you protected:

• Keep your web browser version up-to-date (updates often include secuity patches).
• Close all other tabs and windows before visiting websites that contain sensitive information (ex. banking websites).
• Close your browser including all windows and tabs after visiting websites that contain sensitive information.
