Effectiveness after allowing Scripts Globally ?

Post by vinny »

Hi,

Does No Script contribute to improved security even if i allow Scripts Globally but keep the other options in default state ? :?

Yes. (Short answer.)

Allow Scripts Globally (dangerous) switches NoScript in the (not recommended) "Default Allow" mode. Only sites and objects explicitly marked as untrusted will be disabled. Other important security features, like Anti-XSS protection, HTTPS enforcement, Clickjacking protection and ABE will still be effective, though.
