Η Google launches the version Chrome 86 for the popular web browser and brings several improvements that mainly concern the security of users on mobile devices and not only.
Η most important of all is the automatic control of passwords used by the user, informing him of the possibility that they have been violated and the recommendations to change them.
Ο Chrome 86 immediately transfers the user to the special password change form of the respective service - website in case it detects a violation. Passwords are checked by sending them encrypted by Chrome, so that Google never learns the username / password combinations of the user.
Another function is Enhanced Safe Browsing, which can be activated by the user to be protected in real time from malware attacks, phishing and generally malicious websites. The price, of course, is that you share even more business data with Google.
The feature will be added in a future version of Chrome browser for Android and iOS Safety Check, for manual control of passwords at any time the user wishes, information about the security of the version of Chrome browser installed on his device, as well as the possibility of biometric confirmation for the automatic completion of passwords.
In its version Chrome 86 for PCs will be notified if a form fill form opens in HTTPS but transfers the information to HTTP, blocks the ability of .zip or .iso files from non-HTTPS web pages, and displays a large green light on the top right that there is an update available for the browser.
Finally, Google promises even better CPU and RAM management, but that remains to be seen πρά
