The Iridium Browser is based on the Chromium codebase. All modifications enhance the privacy of the user and make sure that the latest and best secure technologies are used. Automatic transmission of partial queries, keywords, metrics to central services is prevented and only occurs with the approval of the user. In addition, all builds are reproducible and modifications are auditable, setting the project ahead of other secure web browser providers.

"Before Iridium Browser, we had to decide if we wanted to have cutting edge technologies like sandboxed processes, WebRTC, WebUSB … , or if we wanted to use a browser that respects privacy. So we decided to use the power of free software and build a browser that can do both. We analyzed the code of Chromium and stripped out the functionality which exposes data to others in a way we don‘t like".

There are many browsers out there. Chrome is fast, stable, and user-friendly but does not meet many organizations’ demands for privacy. Since the tight integration with its inventor (Google) makes many things easier it does not comply with restrictive data environments. Iridium is not another new browser from scratch. It takes the Chromium code base, which is also used for the official Chrome browser, and enhances its security, and sets certain policies by default.

Features and Highlights

SPEED
The browser is just fast in any way. It starts very fast and loads and renders also very complex web sites really fast.

PRIVACY
"Chromium (which Iridium is based on) is a very secure browser, yes. But it does call home to Google. And we did, even more, to enhance security to the maximum extent possible".

EASE OF USE
Just anybody can use the app right away. It is simple and easy to handle, it does not require any special knowledge at all.
