Safe Browsing is a service that Google's security team built to identify unsafe websites across the web and notify users and webmasters of potential harm. In this Transparency Report, we disclose details about the threats we detect and the warnings we show to users. We share this information to increase awareness about unsafe websites, and we hope to encourage progress toward a safer and more secure web.
How we identify unsafe websites
Google’s Safe Browsing service examines billions of URLs and software and content on those pages in its search for unsafe websites. Safe Browsing then warns users when they navigate to websites that could steal their personal information or install software designed to take over their computers. Every week, Safe Browsing protects billions of devices.Unsafe websites detected per week
Every day, Safe Browsing discovers thousands of new unsafe sites. Many of these are legitimate websites that have been compromised by hackers. Unsafe sites fall into two categories that threaten users’ privacy and security: phishing and malware
Malware explained
These websites contain code that installs malicious software onto visitors’ computers, either when a user thinks they are downloading legitimate software or without a user’s knowledge. Hackers can then use this software to capture and transmit users' private or sensitive information. Our Safe Browsing technology also scans and analyzes the web to identify potentially compromised websites
Phishing explained
These websites pretend to be legitimate so that they can trick users into typing in their usernames and passwords or sharing other private information. Web pages that impersonate legitimate bank websites or online stores are common examples of phishing sites.
