Last but not least, Chrome is improving its Safe Browsing feature. Safe Browsing now checks sites against Google’s known list of bad sites in real-time. This is an upgrade from its previous process which checked sites on a list that was updated every 30 to 60 minutes. “By shortening the time between identification and prevention of threats, we expect to see 25% improved protection from malware and phishing threats,” stated the announcement.
Google Chrome’s design alters will roll out in the coming weeks.
