Check/inform status of DBSC per session/site in Chrome UI

[GuiPoM]

Hello !

I'm a content creator on YouTube, and I'm increasingly concerned about the recent rise in channel theft and exploitation (but this is not my only concern, any cookie theft could then become a personnal nightmare ...). The DBSC feature has caught my attention as a potential safeguard for creators like myself.

I understand that DBSC activation might be implemented on a server-by-server basis. If a server has DBSC enabled, is there a user-friendly way to verify its presence?

In addition, I've heard that some Google Accounts receive enhanced protection. Is there a current or planned method for users to determine which accounts benefit from this protection? Specifically, I'd like to confirm if my YouTube account is currently protected (or can be) by such measures.

I understand that DBSC might be in early development. However, for creators like myself, this feature is highly anticipated. Cookie theft can circumvent all the security measures I put in place, and even with caution on my own computer, I'm aware that social engineering attacks can still be a threat ! 😓

I think it's safe to say that all Google services (including YouTube) will be getting this protection the minute it becomes possible...

You can check the security of your Google account at https://myaccount.google.com/security, not that that is relevant to DBSC (please ask such questions on Google support forums).

We can't comment on Google Accounts plans here, but the advice in this link is generally good: https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/12719164?hl=en

The "enhanced protection" might be referring to the Advanced Protection program, which is linked in the fourth bullet.

Thanks.

For my understanding would it make sense to have a visual indicator linked to the site security ? Or maybe there is already such an indicator available when the experimental feature is on ?

(and sorry if it does not make sense at all with the concept ! ^^)

Even if the site is using DBSC, that doesn't guarantee that they're using it correctly...
