Google Improves Gmail Security for Enterprise Users (May 31, 2017)

Google is adding security features to Gmail for its enterprise users to protect them from phishing, malicious links, and malware. Google is using machine-learning detection to block spam and phishing emails. Users will also see warnings when they click on suspicious links and when they attempt to send protected data to an address outside the company.

Editor’s Note

[John Pescatore]
Google blocking more is good, but imagine if ISPs ever took initiative (or were required) to do the same thing closer to the source. If only the serious attacks reached the endpoints, the reduction in noise alone would make it much easier to quickly detect a targeted or zero day attack that got through.
