A cybersecurity company is marketing a malware tool priced at $1,000 per month that it claims can guarantee continuous access to users' Gmail inboxes, according to Inc.
Google has responded by stating that Gmail itself is not the vulnerability targeted by this malware, suggesting the threat originates from other sources.
This disagreement highlights ongoing concerns about email security and the methods attackers use to maintain unauthorized access.
Google's stance implies that users should be cautious but also aware that the core Gmail service remains secure against this specific threat.
