Answer 2

• First of all u have to know whether the site contains the url which is safe. For example: "https" it means the safest site and it will protect your browsing and "http" means that cannot be ensured boss.  So Please check the url..!!!
• inexperienced users click on links without analyzing the risks they expose themselves to.
• websites that are disguised as legitimate sites or web locations that contain malicious content.
• web browsers that promise fast connection and download speeds without keeping a high security level.
• browser (or application) vendors which are late in discovering and patching security vulnerabilities. We have already covered this issue regarding the applications’ slow patching process in this article.
• drive-by downloads, which imply that some downloaded software packages are bundled with another application or program which may prove dangerous for system’s security and stability.
• programs and applications downloaded and installed on the system without having the possibility of receiving security patches.
• questionable websites that ask the user to install and enable additional features so that malicious content may be downloaded on the system.
• users that lack the necessary knowledge to configure and secure their web browsers.
• web browsers’ vulnerabilities, which become a favorite means for online criminals to exploit and compromise operating systems.

Going incognito doesn’t hide your browsing from your employer, your internet service provider, or the websites you visit.
