Google has released Chrome 86 for desktop and mobile, which comes with several new and improved security features for mobile users, including:
- New password protections
- Enhanced Safe Browsing
- Easier password filling
- Mixed form warnings and mixed downloads warnings/blocks
New password security features in Chrome 86
The Password Checkup feature came first in the form of a Chrome extension, then was built into Google Account’s password manager and Chrome, and now it has been enhanced with support for the “.well-known/change-password” standard – a W3C specification that defines a well-known URL that sites can use to make their change password forms discoverable by tools (e.g. Chrome, or the latest version of Safari)
