Some sound advice for tech users, not so useful for corporates and the non-tech savvy.
I always recommend that friends and family use something like sumatra or if they have to, foxit. A large amount of PDF vulnerabilities exist in functionality most people never use. I like the chrome sandbox option but haven't tried it out to see if it's effective.
Most companies can't upload PDFs to Google Docs or use Chrome, and have to use Adobe Reader (as an internally supported but usually unmanaged app). For that reason we normally recommend turning off Javascript, but disabling the plugin in the browser is new to me. Nice.
