Google is striving to block Gmail messages and other content that exploit COVID-19, but there are steps users can take to fight such malware.
The popularity of Google Cloud services such as G Suite, Gmail, and Chrome have made their users tempting targets for malware.
Gmail blocks more than 100 million phishing emails every day, according to Google.
To try to block these phishing emails, Google said it worked with the WHO to better implement DMARC, which makes it more difficult for attackers to impersonate the legitimate who.
Though Google is doing what it can to block malicious emails and other content, organizations and users also have to take certain precautions.
