Google says there is no major security issue affecting Gmail

Google hits back at recent claims of a major security issue with Gmail. Recent reports of a major security issue affecting Gmail are “entirely false”, Google has said. In a blog post, the company said it wanted to reassure its users that Gmail’s protections are “strong and effective.” While Google did not explicitly mention which claims it was addressing, some of its services had been linked to the recent Salesloft Drift attack. Revenue workflow platform Salesloft recently suffered a cyberattack which saw threat actors break in through a third-party and steal sensitive information.Google later warned that certain Workspace accounts, as well as Salesforce instances, may have been compromised during the attack, as well. This led to some reports misinterpreting it to be Gmail being compromised, which, as Google now confirmed, is not the case. Has the security issue affected you in anyway ?
