Google is releasing new numbers on malware and phishing attempts in an effort to make the Web safer. The data stems from the company’s Safe Browsing program, which finds unsafe sites. The company says the data is being incorporated into its biannual transparency report. The report also includes a section on “notable events” that are responsible for the larger trends contained in the report. Google SafeBrowsing is currently used by some 1 billion people, the company said in its report.”]
