Google Enhances Security with Passkeys and Updates to Combat Cyberattacks
Google Workspace is introducing a beta security feature called Device Bound Session Credentials (DBSC) to prevent session token theft, which has been on the rise and was exploited in attacks like the Linus Tech Tips account takeover. This feature binds session cookies to user devices, making it harder for attackers to steal login credentials through malware. Google also recommends enabling passkeys to enhance security, amid increasing cyber threats involving session hijacking.
