The original article, Yet Another Firefox Hardening Guide, has been archived. If you’re setting up Firefox today, I recommend using the resources listed below.
I’ve recently decided to remove my Firefox Hardening Guide, as I’ve found that it’s getting pretty outdated. Keeping up with Firefox updating and update the article take a lot of time, and unfortunately, I don’t have much time to keep it updated. I felt that removing the original article is the right call, as I don’t want to provide outdated information.
That being said, there are lots of amazing resources out there! For example:
- arkenfox/user.js: template
user.js
with many hardening options - arkenfox/user.js wiki: the
arkenfox/user.js
project maintains an amazing wiki with detailed docs of Firefox options and privacy extensions. - YouTube video: The Ultimate Guide to Firefox Hardening in 2022 (Techlore)
