"Users should wait to use Google Chrome after its vulnerabilities were exposed.
Randy Abrams, director of Technical
Education at ESET, claimed that as vulnerable code was used users
should only use Chrome when they are not viewing sensitive pages.
He claimed that the oversight by Google
is indicative of either a lack of attention to security in development,
or a mandate to put something out there by a certain date without
regard for quality from a security standpoint.
He said: “Google’s inattentiveness to
security was one of the feature presentations at the Blackhat
conference this year. Anyone who has followed Google with respect to
security would not trust that Chrome will be safe to use for quite some
time.
“Google is at about the same place
Microsoft was a decade ago. They have some bright security people, but
marketing is trampling over security right, left and centre. Like
Microsoft, security inside of Google is only likely to have an
appropriate voice when their lack of security starts to affect the
bottom line.""
