Enabling Phishing and Malware Protection

Phishing attacks usually originate from email messages that attempt to lure the recipient into updating their personal information on fake, but very real-looking websites.


The protection works by checking the sites that you visit against lists of reported phishing and malware sites. These lists are automatically downloaded and updated every 30 minutes or so. The technical details of the safe-browsing protocol are also publicly available.
