Gmail enhances security against sensitive actions

What’s changing

Last year, Google showed stronger safeguards around sensitive actions taken in your Google Workspace accounts. We’re extending these protections to sensitive actions taken in Gmail, specifically actions related to:

  • Filters: creating a new filter, editing an existing filter, or importing filters.
  • Forwarding: Adding a new forwarding address from the Forwarding and POP/IMAP settings.
  • IMAP access: Enabling the IMAP access status from the settings. (Workspace admins control whether this setting is visible to end users or not) .

When these actions are taken, Google will evaluate the session attempting the action, and if it’s deemed risky, it will be challenged with a “Verify it’s you” prompt. Through a second and trusted factor, such as a 2-step verification code, users can confirm the validity of the action. If a verification challenge is failed or not completed, users are sent a “Critical security alert” notification on trusted devices.

Nếu thực hiện một hành động nguy hiểm, người dùng sẽ được nhắc nhở với thử thách “Xác minh đó là người dùng”.

Additional details
