Google added a new security tool to Google Apps on Monday. It is a separate page where users can see which devices have been connected to their Google account in the past few days.

The Devices & Activity page provides an overview of all devices connected to or currently connected to a specific account in the last 28 days. The page distinguishes between desktops, laptops, tablets and telephones.

In addition, it is possible to take immediate measures as soon as suspicious activity is detected, says Google. These measures consist of changing the password and changing account rights. In addition, the access of devices can be revoked remotely via the page.

Google also released the so-called security wizard for Google for Work on Monday. That is an installation wizard that allows users to set security, such as adding account recovery information. With both the wizard and the security page, the internet giant says it wants users to be more aware of their security.
