Introduction
Browser fingerprinting refers to the process of identifying and recording various factors, such as the browser itself, the operating system, and hardware configurations, to generate a unique identifier. It is a digital signature obtained through the collection of various features of the browser, such as user agent, language, screen size, plugin version, font, time settings, etc., and a comprehensive analysis. As everyone's browser configurations differ, browser fingerprints can be used to track user behavior, identify identity, monitor online activities, and even for illegal purposes such as fraud and phishing.
VirtualBrowser is a fingerprint browser based on Chromium, which supports Windows 10 and above operating systems, and plans to support Mac, Android, Linux, and other operating systems in the future.
Compared with Chromium, VirtualBrowser has two advantages:
- Support for creating multiple fingerprint information browser environments on one machine.
- Support for managing multiple browser environments.
Preparation
First, download the latest VirtualBrowser installation package from the [release page]() or official website and install it on your computer.
Creating a new browser environment
- Open VirtualBrowser and select Create Browser.
- Modify the configuration information in the pop-up dialog or use the default settings.
Starting the browser environment
- Click the Start button in the created environment to open the newly created browser environment.
- The newly started browser is the new fingerprint environment.
Tested and Effective Fingerprint Modifications
You can test fingerprint modifications using fingerprintjs and browserleaks.
