Google-Safety

Google-Safety is Google’s crawler used to support security, malware detection, and safe-browsing evaluations across the web. It performs targeted checks to detect harmful content, phishing signals, unwanted software, and compromised pages. These scans help maintain Google Safe Browsing warnings and protect users across Chrome, Search, and other Google products. This bot does not respect robots.txt, as that would limit Google’s ability to assess site safety accurately. Crawl activity is typically lightweight and periodic, triggered by risk indicators, user reports, or automated systems monitoring for changes in a site’s security posture. It ignores the global user agent (*) rule. RobotSense.io verifies Google-Safety using Google’s official validation methods, ensuring only genuine Google-Safety traffic is identified.
