With nearly 3.5 billion users, Google ’s Chrome web browser rules the roost when it comes to popularity. Unfortunately, that also makes it a big target for hackers looking to profit from security vulnerabilities. The third urgent security update for the browser has now dropped in as many weeks, and users across all platforms apart from iOS are urged to ensure it is installed and activated as soon as possible. Here’s what you need to know.
The three newly confirmed vulnerabilities, all with that high-severity rating, mean that you should be looking to update your browser as soon as possible in order to stay protected from these emerging threats. As is established practice, the update will start rolling out in the coming days, and the precise details of the vulnerabilities that have been found will not be released to the public until a majority of Chrome browser users have had the chance to update and protect themselves.
Although Chrome will update automatically in most use cases, this can take anything from a few days to a week or two to roll out. Given the nature of the security issues uncovered, users are advised to manually kickstart the process as soon as possible, especially if you rarely close your browser tabs. You can do this by heading to the Help|About option in the menu. If the update is available, it will automatically start downloading.This in itself will not protect you from attackers.
