Chrome is one of the most popular internet browsers. Most of the users use the browser made by Google. As a result, the company has to worry about its security. This is because cybercriminals regularly launch cyberattacks targeting the Chrome browser. Many people do not know that it has several security features to protect users from cyber attacks. Find out what they are.
-
- You can stop receiving website notifications. Accessing various websites through the Chrome browser automatically displays one or more notification messages. Clicking on notification messages exposes you to malware attacks. You can turn off website notifications by accessing Chrome browser settings.
- Enhanced Safe Browsing is another important security feature. With this facility enabled, Google warns Chrome users when they enter suspicious or harmful websites. This feature can be accessed by selecting the 'Safe Browsing' option from 'Privacy and Security' in the browser settings.
- Cybercriminals collect users' Internet usage history along with financial transaction information through fake browser extensions. To solve this problem, you can quickly remove suspicious extensions from Chrome browser settings.
- Can use one time website permission facility. It allows temporary permission to collect various device information for any website. That is, by allowing the collection of information only once, the website cannot collect the information at a later time.
- This can be saved by creating strong passwords using the password manager in the Google Chrome browser. As a result, even if the password is complicated, it does not need to be remembered.
- You can turn on incognito mode. When this feature is turned on, the user's search history, cookies and download information are not stored in the Chrome browser. As a result, Internet browsing can be safe.
