Google Chrome to use AI for phishing alerts

Google is planning to add new security features to the Chrome browser aimed at combating online fraud threats, especially phishing, by providing early warnings to users about suspicious websites. The new feature will distinguish a category called "Suspicious Sites," which shows indicators of doubt without definitively classifying them as harmful sites. This allows users to exercise caution before continuing browsing. Google relies on an advanced artificial intelligence system based on the Gemini model to analyze website content and assess the likelihood of attempts at fraud. The company notes that these tools are evolving to counter phishing designs that mimic well-known sites in order to steal data. Additionally, the update enhances protection against ClickFix attacks, which involve executing deceptive commands that imitate repair requests or technical fix instructions. The system analyzes copied commands and warns users about potential dangers. Users are advised to follow additional security measures, such as verifying website addresses, avoiding unreliable links, and consistently updating their browsers to strengthen protection against digital scams.
