California: Google is adding a new security feature to the Chrome web browser that will help protect sensitive information.

Under this feature, when users using Google Chrome on Android phones share or record the phone screen, the web browser will automatically block sensitive information such as passwords and credit card numbers.

Needless to say, the use of screen sharing is quite high in the present era, and screen sharing with more people can also prove to be dangerous.

According to a report, an indication of this new feature was found on Google Chrome's experimental features page.

The feature is currently not available to users, but the report said that when the feature is enabled, sensitive details such as passwords or other information on the page will be automatically blocked during screen sharing.

The feature will be available to users on phones running on Android-5 or later operating systems.

It is not yet clear how Google will determine or block sensitive details.

But screen sharing or recording is not possible even on Google Chrome's incognito mode, so apparently this new feature is based on that.
