Google says it fixed more Chrome bugs in June than over the past two years, a trend mirrored by Microsoft, as automated analysis tools uncover an exponential number of vulnerabilities.
Google announced that it fixed more Chrome bugs in June than in the entire past two years.
The company attributes the surge to the use of advanced automated analysis tools that scan code for hidden flaws.
Experts have warned that large software firms are discovering an exponential number of bugs, and the new data confirms that trend.
Microsoft has reported a similar uptick in its product bug fixes, indicating that the industry is embracing automated testing more than ever before.
The fixes in June cover a range of vulnerabilities, from memory corruption to privilege escalation, and were identified earlier in the release cycle.
Google said that the new tools helped the security team spot issues during code review and before they reached production.
While the exact count of bugs fixed in June was not disclosed, the company noted a significant increase compared to previous months.
Security analysts emphasize that automated tools are essential for maintaining a robust security posture in large codebases.
Google plans to continue investing in these tools to keep pace with the growing complexity of its software.
Industry observers see this trend as a sign that major tech firms are prioritizing proactive vulnerability detection.
