The Chrome security team is always monitoring the web for danger. If the password for a user's online accounts is found in a public data breach, the user can upgrade their password to a new and secure one with Chrome’s automated password change feature.
To use this generative AI feature, users need to:
- Be at least 18 years of age
- Sign in to Chrome with a Google Account and turn on Chrome sync
- Be based in the US
- Have at least one saved password to Google Password Manager
- Turn on password saving in Google Password Manager
- AutomatedPasswordChangeSettings must be set to 0 or 1
This feature is only compatible with a limited number of English language websites at this time.
