| Google Chrome banned unsafe downloads in April |
Google believes that some websites will mislead users with safe downloads and hopes to fix this with the following Google Chrome browser. So he announced that his browser would be launched in April to avoid uncertainty about secure sites. Download, the browser kept a promise last year to better protect users from malicious content.
Search Giant previously applied the Chrome 80 firmware update to Android and desktop and introduced many new features as part of Google's plan, including automatic updates of mixed content using HTTPS to protect the web.
According to Google, downloading dangerous files threatens users ’privacy and security, and it can easily contain malware and can be read by spies.
The 82nd version of the browser must be the first browser to warn users before downloading certain types of dangerous files. It will be completely banned in future releases.
In the April release, if users try to download only unsafe executable files (such as executable executables), the user will be warned because these files pose a serious threat to the system in terms of malware vulnerability.
Chrome browsers will continue to warn users in future releases of less dangerous unsafe download types like archive files, text, and images. By the end of the year, the browser will clear this warning and will completely block the insecurity of websites by downloading HTTPS.
The mobile version of the browser received the same update, but according to the company, after reaching the desktop version, mobile apps have better protection from malicious downloads, and this delay gives developers more time to focus on how to avoid the user's malware desktop software?
Although these updates may be frustrating, Chrome users can browse them more safely, and smart users often fail to detect malicious downloads, thus they benefit more than other users.
