Google Drive protects users even more

Google scans the files in its cloud storage and tells users if it detects anything suspicious.

Even though virus scanners and other solutions that stop malware are constantly evolving, users also need to be aware enough not to be dragged down by fraudsters who promise huge fortunes or fall victim to extortion viruses.

Google announced as early as Google Cloud Next 2021 that it is implementing new procedures to prevent abuse, and the first important steps have been taken today.

If a user wants to open a suspicious or dangerous file in Google Drive (specifically Docs, Spreadsheets, Slides, and Drawings), you'll see a warning message. You don™t know exactly what you consider something problematic, but you™re probably learning how to be a spam filter.

The service was launched on January 20th and will be available to Google Workspace and G Suite Basic and Business subscribers within 15 days at the latest.
