Google SafeBrowsing

We all know Google Chrome browser is protecting users with Google Safe Browsing by alerting users for those malicious URLS.

Google Safe Browsing API is based on black list methodologies. With an API key, we can create an application to check URL against Google's lists of unsafe web resources. This is great for Cyber Threat Intelligence to scan the proxy log for suspicious social engineering sites or malware hosted URL.

A python library has been created for this at https://pypi.org/project/pysafebrowsing/

To install, just:

$ pip install pysafebrowsing
