Gemini Nano is a new on-device AI by Google designed to protect users from online scams and phishing traps by analyzing website content and intent in real time.
Unlike traditional protection tools, Gemini Nano works independently on the device, ensuring fast and effective scam detection while respecting user privacy.
The AI acts as a digital bodyguard within the browser, examining the legitimacy of websites through language and pattern detection capabilities.
With online scams on the rise, Gemini Nano's real-time analysis helps combat new and rapidly emerging threats, unlike static blocklist tools.
Gemini Nano evaluates websites for signs of deception, such as tech support scams or phishing attempts, and alerts users through Chrome’s Safe Browsing system.
The AI's focus on language-based detection sets it apart from location-based security measures, allowing it to adapt to evolving scam tactics.
Initially targeting tech support scams, Gemini Nano aims to expand its capabilities to detect various fraud types like fake delivery notices and phishing messages.
The AI will soon be integrated into Chrome for Android, enhancing user protection against suspicious website notifications and scams.
Google reports a significant increase in scam identification with AI tools, showcasing the effectiveness of Gemini Nano in combating cyber threats.
