How to set up secure mode and autofill management in Brave to protect personal data?

Protecting personal data and accounts is a priority for users of modern browsers. The Brave browser implements a robust autofill system that carefully stores entered addresses, payment details, and login credentials with passwords, protecting them using the operating system's master password and client-side encryption.

Proper configuration of these features not only speeds up the filling of various registration forms and online stores, but also prevents phishing attacks where fake sites try to steal your data. The browser automatically recognizes trusted domains and inserts information only where it is truly safe.

To configure autofill and personal data security settings, follow these steps:

To ensure the maximum level of security, it is recommended to regularly check saved passwords for leaks in databases using the built-in security audit tool. The browser will automatically analyze your accounts and report if any passwords have been compromised on third-party resources, prompting you to change them immediately.

Additionally, you can block data saving for specific sites by adding them to the exclusion list in the privacy settings. This guarantees that confidential information used on test or unreliable resources will never end up in the local browser storage and will not become available to unauthorized persons when sharing the device.
