How strong Opera browser both Android and PC but specifically Android against malware?. Assuming a device is infected by trojan, malware, virus etc does the Opera browser still protected assuming i access my banking using opera browser?. A malware would probably to read whatever you do on device like keypad registering or capturing your screen but does it still secure when use Opera browser to enter infromation.

A keylogger is a keylogger; I doubt Opera can change that. Of course if Opera already saved your passwords then a keylogger won't see them (since you aren't typing them in). But that's really all I can say there.

Take me a while to do some though. Since i am using BlackBerry Keyboard so can be assume that there should be no keylogger issue but still, how secure opera browser from other malware type?

I guess that once a malware infects a system, every program installed on it is subject of being infected.

@sgunhouse @leocg I guess all those "secure browsing" claim is a bait after all. Wonder if Opera ever done any penetration test on their own browser. The reason i use Opera browser is their secureness claim. No i little doubt my own to use the browser anymore.

I guess there may be a misunderstanding here.

Opera provides you a secure browsing and sometimes even makes people complain about what they call an excessive security.
However, if the system is contaminated, there's no way Opera or any other browser to keep providing you a secure browsing.

Opera is based on Chromium, so I guess it is as secure as other Chromium based browser.
