Mozilla Firefox [mɒˈzɪlə ˈfaɪɚfɑks] est un navigateur web libre et gratuit disponible pour PC (Windows, macOS, Linux, BSD, etc.) et mobiles (Android, iOS), développé et distribué par la Mozilla Foundation depuis 2003, avec l'aide de milliers de bénévoles. L'entreprise Mozilla Corporation est créée en 2005 pour se charger du développement. Firefox a connu un succès croissant, dépassant 1,2 milliard de téléchargements en janvier 2010, devenant le principal concurrent d'Internet Explorer. En décembre 2010, Firefox devient le navigateur le plus utilisé en Europe devant Internet Explorer et Google Chrome. Depuis 2010 et l'essor de la navigation sur smartphones, Firefox a vu sa part du marché des navigateurs web décroître d'environ 35 % à 4 % en 2021 (8 % sur PC), au profit notamment de Google Chrome et de Safari. Firefox compte 196 millions d'utilisateurs actifs dans le monde en 2021. Mozilla, qui finance le développement de Firefox, se rémunère par les dons et les partenariats ; depuis les années 2000, l'essentiel des revenus de la fondation provient de Google, bien que l'organisation cherche à les diversifier. En 2019, l'agence allemande de sécurité informatique (BSI) recommande Firefox, considérant qu'il est le navigateur le plus sécurisé.
