Gmail account security in Iran
September 8, 2011
Posted by Eric Grosse, VP Security Engineering
We
learned last week
that the compromise of a Dutch company involved with verifying the authenticity of websites could have put the Internet communications of many Iranians at risk, including their Gmail. While Google’s internal systems were not compromised, we are directly contacting possibly affected users and providing similar information below because our top priority is to protect the privacy and security of our users.
While users of the Chrome browser were protected from this threat, we advise all users in Iran to take concrete steps to secure their accounts:
Change your password. You may have already been asked to change your password when you signed in to your Google Account. If not, you can change it
here
.
Verify your account recovery options. Secondary email addresses, phone numbers, and other information can help you regain access to your account if you lose your password. Check to be sure your recovery options are correct and up to date
here
.
Check the websites and applications that are allowed to access your account, and revoke any that are unfamiliar
here
.
Check your Gmail settings for suspicious
forwarding addresses
or
delegated accounts
.
Pay careful attention to
warnings that appear
in your web browser and don’t click past them.
For more ways to secure your account, you can visit

. If you believe your account has been compromised, you can start the recovery process
