☑ Chromium will check all web content, including e.g. images and scripts, against a continuously updated list of known phishing and malware websites. If Chromium finds suspicious content, you will be given a warning. 

☐ Chromium will not check web content. 

File access

☑ Chromium can access local files on the endpoint device. Downloads and uploads are allowed. Before a file is downloaded, a confirmation dialog is shown.

☐ Local files cannot be accessed by Chromium. Neither downloads nor uploads are allowed. When the user tries to download a file, a message informs the user that downloads are blocked.

Download allowlist: The MIME types listed here are not blocked even when File access is deactivated. The storage location is defined under Sessions > Chromium Browser > Chromium Browser Global > Content, parameter Location.

The list entries are separated by semicolons ";".
