Google has updated “Enhanced Protection” in Chrome with AI technology to provide real-time protection against malicious websites, downloads, and browser extensions.
After three months of testing in Chrome Canary (the nightly version of Chrome with experimental features), the AI-driven Enhanced Protection feature is now being rolled out to the stable version of the Chrome browser on all platforms, reports BleepingComputer.
This improved protection is part of Safe Browsing, a security feature that has been in Chrome for several years now. Previously, Google used a method called “proactive protection” to alert users to potentially malicious websites. Now, the terminology has been updated to reflect the real-time protection offered by AI integration.
Exactly how the AI version differs from the previous “proactive” variant isn’t entirely clear, but the technology apparently enables real-time analysis of patterns to identify suspicious or dangerous webpages — even ones that Google hasn’t yet classified as malicious.
According to Google, the AI-powered security feature can also perform deep scanning of downloads to detect suspicious files.
