Safe Browsing by google.
Safe Browsing is a service provided by Google that alerts users to potentially malicious or dangerous sites. This service uses various methods such as analyzing the content of the site and many other factors to determine if the site is safe to visit.
If you see an error or malware warning on a site, it may be because the site has been added to the Safe Browsing list as potentially dangerous. This can happen if the site contains malicious code, participates in phishing attacks, distributes malware, or has other dangerous characteristics.
Reasons why a site may be placed on the Safe Browsing list may include:
- Detecting malicious code on a website.
- Phishing messages aimed at tricking users.
- History of unsafe activity on the site.
- Downloading malware from a website.
- Low domain reputation.
If you are sure the site is safe but still see the warning, you can contact Google to review the site’s status. But keep in mind that such inquiries may take some time.
It is important to take security warnings seriously and avoid visiting suspicious sites, as they may pose a threat to your sensitive information and the security of your device.
