Is It Safe? Gmail Detects And Warns Of Intrusions

Gmail Detects and Warns You If Someone Else Is Using Your Account. One of the nice things about Google is that it is always innovating. Without fanfare, a security button has been added to GMail that tells you the date, time and IP address of the accesses to your GMail account. If a strange IP address shows up (like from the Ukraine), GMail will pop up with a warning message. Hopefully, this will enable you to change your password to avoid further intrusions before the bad guys. Of course, nothing is completely safe in the cloud; however, like a good burglar alarm system, you can set up your Internet life so that clanging alarm bells go off if an intruder invades, and you hopefully can protect yourself.
