Like any software, the Tor Browser has vulnerabilities that can be exploited. To mitigate this, it's important to keep Tails up to date, and we also recommend that you increase the Tor Browser's security settings: click the shield icon, and then click **Change**. By default, it's set to Standard, which maintains a browsing experience comparable to a regular browser. We recommend that you set it to the most restrictive setting before you start browsing: **Safest**.
Like any software, the Tor Browser has vulnerabilities that can be exploited - various police agencies have Tor Browser exploits for serious cases. To mitigate this, it's important to keep Tails up to date, and you should increase the Tor Browser's security settings: click the shield icon, and then click **Change**. By default, it's set to Standard, which maintains a browsing experience comparable to a regular browser. **We strongly recommend that you set it to the most restrictive setting before you start browsing: Safest**. The vast majority of exploits against Tor Browser will not work with the Safest setting.
The layout of some pages may be changed, and some types of content may be disabled (SVG images, click-to-play videos, etc.). For example, this site has two things that will be blocked in Safest mode because they rely on Javascript: dark mode and the article's table of contents. Some sites will not work at all with these restrictions; if you have reason to trust them, you can view them with a less restrictive setting on a site-by-site basis. Note that both of these less restrictive settings allow scripts to work, which can [break your anonymity](https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2013/08/attackers-wield-firefox-exploit-to-uncloak-anonymous-tor-users/) in a worst-case scenario.
