Avast Launches Security-Focused Browser for Android
2020-04-09 13:44

Security solutions provider Avast this week announced the launch of an Android version of its Avast Secure Browser.

Previously available for Windows and macOS, the browser aims to provide users with increased security and privacy while navigating the Internet, shopping, or accessing their bank accounts on their Android devices.

Featuring support for multiple DNS options straight out of the box, including DNS over TLS, DNSSEC and decentralized DNS support, Avast Secure Browser also ensures that DNS requests are both private and secure.

"We know that our customers care deeply about security and privacy and want to be in control of their own personal data without compromising the quality of their online interactions. Our goal is to be the first all-in-one browser to secure our users' privacy along with a frictionless secure browsing experience. Adding support for mobile is another milestone in our journey towards this long-term goal," Scott Curtiss, VP and GM of Avast Secure Browser, said.

Avast Secure Browser is available for download on the security company's website for Windows, macOS, and Android.
