Google says Chrome Enhanced Protection makes users 10x safer

Google updated Chrome's Safe Browsing Enhanced Protection, claiming the mode makes users ten times safer from phishing and scams than Standard Protection. Chrome adds suspicious-site warnings in the address bar, cloud Gemini analysis of page content, and defenses against ClickFix social engineering.

• Enhanced Protection cuts phishing and scam risk tenfold, Google says
• Suspicious sites get a shield icon in the Omnibox with a 'Mark as safe' option
• Gemini analyzes page content in the cloud without logging or training on it
• Chrome strips PII from copied ClickFix commands and scans them for threats
