The current versions of ChromeFirefox, Internet ExplorerEdge, and Safari (only on macOS) are supported in the current EFSversions. If your installation is still using an older EFS version, the browser version will no longer be supported . This means that older EFS versions do not provide browser bug fixes, if current versions are already available.

The version 11 of the Internet Explorer is supported. The support of the older versions (IE 9-10) was discontinued as of 17.4. The support of ChromeFirefox, and Edge is limited to the latest version. Older versions are not supported. The Safari version of the current and the previous macOS release is supported. Currently the Safari version 11+ is supported.

Protection against viruses, malware and cross-site attacks

With EFS you can rely on ad-hoc anti-virus and malware scanning for all uploads within the EFS administration area. During an upload, files are immediately scanned for malware, before being moved to their final destination within the EFS platform. If malware is found, files are immediately removed from the temporary storage and the user is notified that the upload was not successful. This approach ensures that at no point malware can be distributed through EFS.

Tivian also uses CSRF tokens for protecting the EFS administration area from cross-site attacks – without compromising on usability. While being reliably protected from cross-site request forgery attacks, administration users can continue working in concurrent browser tab sessions.
