The Advanced Protection Program comes to Google Nest
June 1, 2020
Posted by Shuvo Chatterjee, Product Manager, Advanced Protection Program
The
Advanced Protection Program
is our strongest level of Google Account security for people at high risk of targeted online attacks, such as journalists, activists, business leaders, and people working on elections. Anyone can sign up to automatically receive extra safeguards against phishing, malware, and fraudulent access to their data.
Since we launched, one of our goals has been to bring Advanced Protection’s features to other Google products. Over the years, we’ve incorporated many of them into
GSuite
,
Google Cloud Platform
,
Chrome
, and most recently,
Android
. We want as many users as possible to benefit from the additional levels of security that the Program provides.
Today we’re announcing one of the top requests we’ve received: to bring the Advanced Protection Program to Nest. Now people can seamlessly use their Google Accounts with both Advanced Protection and Google Nest devices -- previously, a user could use their Google Account on only one of these at a time.
Feeling safe at home has never been more important and Nest has
announced a variety of new security features this year
, including using reCAPTCHA Enterprise, to significantly lower the likelihood of automated attacks. Today’s improvement adds yet another layer of protection for people with Nest devices.
