360 Secure Browser vs Waterfox

360 Secure Browser is a free browser available for Android, iOS, Linux, macOS, and Windows. The product describes a Chromium 132 kernel, cross-device sync, and extensions from its own store, which advertises more than 2,000 extensions. Built-in tools include an AI assistant, AI search, AI reading mode, image tools, a PDF reader, and a translation assistant. Login Manager can save and autofill passwords and generate strong passwords. The browser opens image, audio, video, PDF, and text files; extensions can add Office-format support. Its six described protections cover system files and processes, malicious websites and downloads, page sandboxing, crypto-mining scripts, DNS resolution, and isolation of pages, code, plugins, and CPU processes. The homepage also lists encrypted DNS and anti-tracking mode. A separate enterprise product offers centralized configuration, device and client-version management, browser policies, and data controls including watermarks, encrypted on-disk data, screenshot protection, download blocking, access controls, and auditing. Enterprise plans are priced per device: 基础版 is 58 CNY a year beyond 100 free devices, 高级版 is 158 CNY a year, and 旗舰版 is 258 CNY a year.

Waterfox is a free, open-source web browser built around privacy and customisation. It uses the Gecko engine and is listed for Android, browser extensions, Linux, macOS and Windows. On desktop, it blocks ads, trackers, pop-ups and overlays by default; filter lists and site exceptions can be adjusted. Private tabs use their own container, and Waterfox removes that container’s site data when the final private tab closes. DNS requests are encrypted and passed through an Oblivious HTTP relay; users can change or disable the default Fastly-operated relay and Cloudflare-operated resolver. Tree tabs nest pages under the page that opened them, with branches that can be collapsed or moved together. Firefox WebExtensions work, but Chrome-only extensions do not transfer automatically. Regular updates incorporate Mozilla security fixes using the Firefox ESR model. Waterfox says telemetry, health reports and crash reports are disabled at build time. Sync is off until Mozilla-account sign-in, and synced data is end-to-end encrypted. The browser plan is free, with no premium tier or required payment.
