Google Chrome Accelerates Security Updates to Two-Week Cycle

Google officially transitioned Chrome to a two-week release schedule on Tuesday with the launch of Chrome 153 across desktop, iOS, and Android platforms.

The shift aims to shrink the 'N-day' patch gap, allowing Google to deploy security fixes faster in response to evolving threats and automated AI-driven vulnerabilities.

This update cycle follows a 2021 move from six weeks to four, and aligns Chrome with other browsers like Microsoft Edge, Brave, and Mozilla that have adopted similar rapid release cadences.
