Google Chrome steps up warnings before visiting risky websites
Google has introduced a new security feature in the Chrome browser that warns users before visiting websites suspected of phishing or malware infection. The updated Safe Browsing system adds a new “suspicious site” warning for users who enable Enhanced Protection, while “dangerous sites” continue to trigger a full-screen red alert. Google also upgraded Gemini-based scam detection, shifting to a server-based model and expanding detection to scams posing as fake antivirus or browser updates.
