The Co-Evolution of Cybercrime and Safe Browsing Over the Last 2 Decades
Description

This talk is part of a two-presentation session running from 4:10 PM - 5:00 PM. The session will feature two presentations back-to-back, with Q&A after each presentation.

Safe Browsing currently protects more than 5 billion devices and thousands of organizations globally. It provides protections against common web threats including credential theft, malware and social engineering. Over the last 2 decades, adversaries reacted to Safe Browsing by distributing threats faster, creating unique and short-lived links to host their attacks. In response, we evolved our systems to provide real-time protection, powered by AI, going beyond traditional list-based mechanisms, complete with a feedback loop from opt-in users which enables Safe Browsing to learn about new threats in real-time. In this talk, we’ll be sharing the evolution of Safe Browsing from a “list of threats” to a complex, multi-layered protection ecosystem, complete with enterprise APIs, that is still evolving with the speed and sophistication of cybercrime. We will also present some of the lessons we learned about building defense in depth and preventing false positives.
