We all are using gmail from years and put our-self in blind faith on google inc and suddenly the news comes that the passwords are being stolen and the author gives a link where you can check whether the account is stolen or not "https://isleaked.com/en" now this could be a hack to get the gmail addresses of the people and can be reused somewhere and for some other purpose too.
There is nothing officially coming on the same from Gmail till this time that means there is something fishy about this threat this happens in the past too e.g. linkedin normally people use to change their passwords when ever this kind of news comes on and go ahead because we are now so dependent on these companies and things becoming part of our daily life even there are people who earns through this.
if the news comes from official circles like yahoo and india today in this country defiantly, it is some degree of concerns for everyone.
Think about the small scale companies who have hosted their account on Gmail and if the data is getting hacked by big fishes what will going to happens to their small business.
As this is a early chicken news so lets wait till the response comes from Google company but in most of the cases if the so many people are involved in a situation then they come up with next level of news to encounter these kind of news and the people go on as the case with Linked.
I am following the news and what ever the outcome till that i will post things on my blogs.
On the 10+ GB Free storage if the data is secure or not let us follow the situation.
Remember always Gmail has a tag with it which says its "Beta" version so technically what ever happens to our data that company is secure them self.
