Google Workspace is launching a new security measure to help prevent the same type of account takeover attack that impacted Linus Tech Tips. The feature, which is rolling out in beta for Chrome users on Windows, is designed to block bad actors from remotely stealing the cookies that keep you logged in to your Workspace account. That makes it more difficult for attackers to carry out session token-stealing attacks, which often occur when a victim downloads information-stealing malware. Along with DBSC, Google recommends that Workspace administrators enable passkeys as well, which is now available to over 11 million customers.
