Google has added a new section to its Transparency Report focused on data from its Safe Browsing programme, which identifies unsafe websites and lets both users and webmasters know when their online security is at risk.



From Silicon Republic:

The Safe Browsing programme began in 2006 and, according to Google software engineer Lucas Ballard writing on the Google Blog, this programme is currently flagging up to 10,000 suspect websites a day.

This information is shared by Google with other browsers, meaning that it contributes to keeping about 1bn users safe online.
