# Firefox Hardening

## Description

A CIS based Hardening for Mozilla Firefox browser.

- 100% of the rules in the CIS benchmark are implemented for Windows and Linux (32 and 64 bits, version ESR or not)
- There are 6 level 2 rules (with potential impact) marked in the scripts
- Easy to use (2 solutions)
- Run script (PowerShell for Windows, Perl for Linux)
- Place the reference files, containing the configurations, in the firefox directories (these files are found in the github version)
- A keepass configuration (the web content can't deactivate copy/paste events)
- Privacy configurations (tracking protection, URL bar "smart" options...)
- Optimization (cache in memory instead of disk)
- Simplify the use of tabs (don't close Firefox with the last tab)
- Dark theme for Firefox interface (no impact on the Web content)
