In its latest update, Google added new features to empower organizations with more information about cybersecurity and their digital footprints, according to NBC News.
One feature is a password check-up tool. In this feature, Google will audit all of the passwords account users have stored in Google Chrome. Users can access a list of which passwords may have been comprised in a data breach. The tool also allows organizations to see how many times a user reuses their passwords.
The majority of consumers and employees reuse passwords, according to a LastPass survey cited by NBC News. This is simply because it is easy to remember reused passwords. Because passwords are so commonly reused, hackers can easily gain access to various accounts.
Other security features Google has implemented include allowing Google Assistant users to delete the last question they asked. Additionally, Google Maps users can now use the location service through an incognito mode, which will disable Google from tracking their map activity.
