The other security feature, which is new and part of the Google One package, would help customers better protect their online data. Officially the quality will be called ‘Dark Web Report.’
“When you enable dark web report, you provide and select the information you’d like to keep an eye on within your monitoring profile. If the company finds any matching information, it will notify the user and guide how they might protect that information. For example, if it finds a user’s Social Security number on the dark web, it might suggest that they report it to the government as stolen,” says Google.
