Google has started showing a new banner in the Gmail application which reads ‘Enhanced Safe Browsing’. It looks like the company is encouraging its users to enable the efficient mode to experience a useful way of surf and protecting emails against malicious attacks.
As first spotted by a user, the “Enhanced Safe Browsing” box appears just above the inbox for Android and web-based Gmail applications. The main aim of this promotion is to guard users’ data against phishing. All you have to do is, turn on the toggle and add some extra safety to your emails.
In terms of safety, Enhanced Safe Browsing works in several manners. You can check the points below.
- Predicts and warns you about dangerous events and links across Google apps.
- Keeps you safe on Chrome and Gmail. It further improves your security in other accounts you are signed in.
- Improves security as well as protects against phishing and malware for you and everyone on the web.
- Warns you if passwords are exposed in a data breach.
