Protect Yourself from the Spectre Vulnerability in Chrome

The Spectre vulnerability presents an extremely serious security risk, and it affects essentially all devices in use today. The good news is that there is a simple change you can make in Chrome that will ensure that personal information from Chrome is protected from any exploiters of Spectre. All you need to do is a Chrome option called “Site Isolation Protection,” and you’ll be all set. Simply go to chrome://flags/#enable-site-per-process, click enable on the Strict site isolation option, restart Chrome — and your activity in Chrome will be completely protected. Not only is it easy, Google says the performance loss for Chrome should be negligible!
