Isolate Work in Firefox

Wed, 18 Mar 2020 11:30:23 -0400

Like a large number of people around the world right now, my place of work has closed the doors for safety concerns. I’m fortunate enough to be in a position to work from home via VPN, but I did want to keep some separation between my work and non-work environments.

The full-separation route would be creating a new user profile on my local machine. This would ensure complete separation. I didn’t go this route because I don’t need to keep everything separate. A fair amount of my work is already isolated via RDP (to a Windows machine) or ssh (to my workstation and development servers). The biggest remaining concern was Firefox – keeping all my work logins (Office 365, issue tracker, etc) from intermingling with my personal accounts.
