Perform An Online Security Checkup For Google Account
Google account security checkup tool provides a single interface for reviewing Google account security and for ensuring that these accounts are not compromised.
Access the security checklist feature from here.
The interface provides a checklist of various online security items related to Google account like :
Recovery information : Verify that the alternate email address for recovery and phone number is accurate.
Recent activity : This displays all the connected devices to Google account as well as the recent logins.It also displays other information like location from where the login happened, the OS used as well as the device type.
Account permissions : This is a handy feature. There are times when you give access to some app to access Google account and then forget about it either because that app is not used much or for other reasons.
This account permissions review list displays all the third party apps that have access to your account. Simply remove those which are no longer needed and increase the security significantly just by doing this.
Once the required information is added/reviewed, the confirmation page will display a message.
It is also a good idea to have an eye on various Google services that are active and their activities. This can be done through a single dashboard as well. Here is an earlier article related to that.
Happy checking.
