Google Chrome browser will be able to automatically change users' passwords: experimental feature in testing phase

Changing passwords is an important part of online security, but with a large number of accounts, it is becoming increasingly difficult. Now Google Chrome will help users change their passwords automatically.

what is known

User X @Leopeva64 discovered code that points to this feature.

This feature is still publicly available, as it is in the testing phase. Therefore, it is not yet possible to say exactly when Google will release it to all users. There's also a chance that the company could cancel it altogether.

What exactly will change? If your password is compromised due to a data breach, Chrome will automatically prompt you to change it when you sign in. You don't have to worry about your password being changed without your knowledge.

As soon as Google detects a security breach, it will automatically prompt you to change your password. After that, the new password will be updated in Google Password Manager, and you don't need to remember it.

This feature was introduced by Google as part of artificial intelligence, and it is currently in the testing stage, so some bugs are expected. This feature has been around before, but this time the process has been simplified and users will have to go through fewer steps.

Although the release date of this feature is unknown, it could be very useful, because hackers often gain access to company data, and it is not always easy to track all the leaks. Automatic password updates will help improve user security online.
