Google Good to Know A guide to staying safe and secure online - Manual (Page 12)

Making the Internet safer for everyone
Protecting users is a shared responsibility. We are all better off when everyone
uses the best security technologies and techniques.
Sharing expertise and tools
Because your safety is important to us no matter what services or products
you’re using, we share the information about the bad sites and links that we
find with other companies, so that they can help protect their users as well.
By working together and helping each other, the whole web is much safer.
Communicating with users and website owners
As we work to protect our users and their information, we sometimes discover
and investigate unusual patterns of activity. Every day we identify and flag
more than 10,000 of those unsafe sites. We also send messages every day
to thousands of website owners whose sites we think might have been
compromised by an attack so they can clean up their sites.
Partnering with security organizations
Google is part of a number of organizations
that work to help companies improve security
for their users. For example, we partner with
and helped found StopBadware.org to make
the web safer by stopping, mitigating and
cleaning up websites with malware or other
bad software.
