The last UI update to Chrome is a shortcut icon for the Extensions enabled in the browser. Chrome will allow the user configure a different secure DNS provider in the Advanced security section, or disable the feature altogether.
The second security feature is called Secure DNS which will make Chrome encrypt the DNS lookup by using DNS-over-HTTPS. The first is Enhanced Safe Browsing, which enables advanced protections from pages visited and downloads, protecting the user from phishing, malware and other web-based threats. There are two important security features that are being added in this update. There will also be a toggle to enable third-party cookies when an incognito window is opened and there will be an “eye” icon in the address bar if the user wishes to enable cookies for a particular site. Google Chrome will now block third-party cookies by default within each Incognito session, while continuing to delete cookies every time the browser window is closed. Safety Check in Google Chrome is a neat little tool that will perform many functions like warn if Safe Browsing is switched off, inform the user in case malicious extensions were installed, check to see if Chrome is up to date and if the passwords that saved in Chrome have been compromised. The “You and Google” section will show all the data sync options for the connected Google account. Site Settings will now show two distinct sections: one with website permissions and other showing most recent permissions activity.
The option “Clear browsing data” has been pushed to the top in the Privacy and Security section and there are more accessible controls to help manage cookies. One of the first changes that Chrome has made is to the UI of the Settings screen. These include easy controls over cookies, Site settings, shortcut to clear browsing data, option to block/allow third-party cookies in incognito mode, two major security upgrades and more. Google Chrome has rolled out an update that is focused on better, clearer privacy and security controls in the browser settings.
