Considering how dependent Google's success is on the underlying security of
the Web, it should come as no surprise that the company has a vested interest in
Web security.
To that end the search giant has picked up anti-malware firm Green Border
for an undisclosed sum.
A Google spokesperson said the company will not disclose additional terms of the deal, but added that GreenBorder's engineers will help build products and features that will benefit Google's users, advertisers and publishers.

GreenBorder produces technology that separates the browser context from the
operating system context creating what is essentially a virtualized browser
instance that can then be used to identify malcode without impacting the
underlying system.
"GreenBorder creates a protected environment on your computer," the
company's Web site states. "Any type of activity and interaction, while you
are on the Internet, will be directed to the protected environment."
It is not yet known how Google will integrate the GreenBorder technology
with its own, though Google certainly has not shied away from security in the
past. The Google Toolbar includes Safe Browsing technology developed by
Google that helps to identify potential phishing Web sites. The Safe Browsing
technology is now also a key part of the Firefox 2.x browser.
