Google announced that the standard version of Safe Browsing will start checking sites against a server-side bad actor list in real-time
The standard mode of Safe browsing on Chrome for desktop and iOS will now check sites against Google’s server-side list of known bad sites in real-time.
This functionality will come to Android later this month.
Password Checkup on iOS now flags weak and reused passwords, in addition to flagging compromised passwords.
Every day more and more harmful websites pop up on the web. However, Chrome users are protected from most malware, phishing, and other cyberattacks thanks to the browser’s Safe Browsing feature. That feature is about to get a nice boost that was previously reserved for the enhanced version, but it will initially only be available for desktop and iOS.
