Advanced Protection defends against targeted online attacks.

Protects your account from phishing

Gmail blocks over 100 million phishing attempts every day. But sophisticated phishing tactics can trick the most savvy users into giving their sign-in credentials to hackers. Advanced Protection requires you to use a passkey or a security key to verify your identity and sign in to your Google Account. And unauthorized users won’t be able to sign in without them, even if they know your username and password.

Provides extra protection from harmful downloads

Safe Browsing on Chrome protects 4 billion devices against risky sites, and Advanced Protection performs even more stringent checks before each download. It flags, or even blocks you from downloading, files that may be harmful. Only app installations from verified stores, like Google Play Store and your device manufacturer’s app store, are allowed.

Keeps your personal information secure

When you sign up to new apps or services, you’re often asked to give access to your information in your Google Account, like your contacts, location or Drive. Google Accounts come with built-in protections and check over 1 billion saved passwords for breaches every day. But some attackers can impersonate a legitimate third-party to gain access to information. Advanced Protection allows only Google apps and verified third-party apps to access your Google Account data, and only with your permission.
