Google announced on Thursday: as Google chat replaces hangouts as the preferred instant messaging tool for users, the company is also working to remind everyone to guard against potential phishing and malware attacks** As Google's latest move to curb the harm of phishing, the company discussed multiple efforts to enhance the user security experience at this year's I / O developer conference, including warnings and reminders for potential security problems and security suggestions to solve related problems.
In addition, Google has developed other security measures, such as expanding two-step verification, personalized advertising, and a deeper data security plan.
The latest news is that in a blog post on Thursday, Google announced a new warning banner for workspace / Gmail users to remind potential links to malware, phishing, or extortion software.
In fact, as early as late April, this function has been extended to workspace productivity applications. No matter where the user opens the link, software such as docs documents, sheets e-forms, slides presentations and drawing sketches will give a warning of suspicious malicious files.
According to the plan, this feature will be promoted to more customers in the next few weeks, and can be applied to individual Google accounts and all workspace users.
