What happened
Collection of Google Security Blog posts (Dec 2025–Feb 2026) covering platform- and ecosystem-level security improvements rather than new disclosed CVEs. Key announcements: Chrome is pursuing quantum-safe HTTPS by collaborating on Merkle Tree Certificates (MTCs) via the IETF PLANTS working group and will not immediately add traditional post‑quantum X.509 certs to the Chrome Root Store to avoid performance/bandwidth issues; the CA/Browser Forum and Chrome Root Program are phasing out 11 legacy Domain Control Validation methods (SC-080/SC-090/SC-091) with full effect by March 2028.
