The reported default change expands a safeguard previously enabled for users enrolled in Chrome’s Enhanced Protection mode, bringing the permission step to other users too.
Google has extended Chrome’s permission prompts before insecure HTTP web connections to all users by default, The Hacker News reported on October 22. Previously, the feature was enabled for users enrolled in Enhanced Protection, a security mode within Chrome’s Safe Browsing feature.
