Perspectives puts new look on Firefox security

David AndersonMuch has been made of Firefox 3.0's handling of self-signed SSL certificates this week. Coincidently, a team of researchers at Carnegie Mellon Univeristy released a new Firefox Add-On designed to deal with this very issue and help make Firefox more secure. David Andersen, assistant professor of computer science at CMU, talks about the Perspectives plug-in and how it can make your Firefox browsing experience a little more secure. (8:17)
