    Why is Edge and IE defective and promote MITM attacks

    I was MITM attacked this weekend and all of my browsers except IE/Edge noticed and blocked the connection with either (HSTS failure or pinning error). IE and Edge seem to be severely defective and dont notice at all when SSL connections are MITM'ed. Why
    are these browsers so bad?

    Router behind a router = more secure?

    Thanks.

    So it is more secure from both exploits and brute force to have router > Router > Computers. An attacker would have to find exploits in both routers before gaining access to a network?

    I'm not that worried, I just wanted to know the theory as I seem to get conflicting information. I had always assumed that having a router behind a router would be better security-wise.

    I am pretty sure that my router would be on the list of those compromised in Vietnam by malware. The malware only changed the primary DNS for the router, so I would still not be immune to this kind of attack if someone gained access to my internet facing router, but it got me thinking more about security.
