In 2020 we launched Enhanced Safe Browsing, which you can turn on in your Chrome security settings, with the goal of substantially increasing safety on the web. The number of malicious extensions that Chrome disabled to protect users grew by 81% in 2020. Starting with Chrome 91, we will roll out new features to help users better choose their extensions, as well as offer additional protections against downloading malicious files. For any downloads that Safe Bowinging deems risky, users will be presented with a warning and the ability to send the file to be scanned.”]
