Some of the new features in the browser include answers directly in the address bar (the Omnibox), improved site shortcut management, and new looks that include modified shape of tabs to make site icons easier to see.Ĭhrome Enterprise 69 now blocks third-party software to provide users with improved stability, requires users to grant explicit permission for Adobe Flash to run on sites still using it (the permission is asked after each browser restart), and prevents password reuse with a Password Alert policy. Attackers could even modify the content of web pages before they are delivered to the user.

Starting with Chrome 68, Google is marking sites served over HTTP connections as “Not Secure”, in order to warn users that data transmitted between the site and the browser is susceptible to man-in-the-middle attacks and other types of threats. Instead, the indicator is now grey, given that Google considers HTTPS connections the norm. When a user is setting a new password, Chrome can generate it and save it, so that it is easily accessible on both computers and phones.Ĭhrome 69 also brings updated site indicators, as it no longer marks HTTPS websites with a green lock. The highly popular web browser now has an improved password manager that makes it easier for users to have a unique and strong password for each site. Google this week celebrates 10 years of its Chrome web browser with the release of a new version that provides users with security improvements, new features, and patches for 40 vulnerabilities.
