Summary

Suspicious site warnings are a new feature for users of **Safe Browsing > Enhanced protection**, to warn against potentially malicious sites. In Chrome 152, when a user enrolled in enhanced Safe Browsing visits a site with signals to indicate that it is potentially malicious, a warning displays in a by-passable pop-up, which must be clicked before they can continue. This warning is in addition to the red interstitial warnings, which will continue to be shown on confirmed malicious websites. For more information, see [Choose your Safe Browsing protection level in Chrome](https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/13844634). Admins can control this warning using the existing [SafeBrowsingProtectionLevel](https://chromeenterprise.google/policies/#SafeBrowsingProtectionLevel) policy. To exclude specific sites from triggering the warning, admins can add URLs to the [SafeBrowsingAllowlistDomains](https://chromeenterprise.google/policies/#SafeBrowsingAllowlistDomains) policy.
