Google refurbish the company’s account security system for users Next Month
Google is reportedly planning to refurbish the company’s account security system for users in October as part of a broader effort to combat cyber attacks and hacking attempts in the future amid a series of cybersecurity incidents that’s been taking place in recent times, according to a new report by Bloomberg. Citing sources privy to the search giant’s security upgrade plan, the report claims Google will launch a new update to its security tool for user accounts called the Advanced Protection Program that is designed to protect your accounts including email as well as prevent third-party apps from gaining access to non-public information contained in private accounts.
Google had been pushing new updates and improvements to its security tools in order to stay ahead of cyber incidents. Last May, Google overhauled its developer and app-related security protocols within the Play Store ecosystem in response to various cyber attacks in recent history. The updated security protocol aims to revamp the verification process for the developers’ objectives in regard to web and traditional apps. While some of Google’s security efforts proved successful, it remains to be seen whether the new security program can help to boost the security level of user accounts within the search giant’s platform
