After the arrival of instant messaging apps like WhatsApp and Instagram, the use of Gmail has reduced. Even after this, it is still used in corporate and government work. Be it electricity bill, any bank transaction or paying children’s school fees. Everyone’s alerts now come on the mail account only.
Nowadays we keep our Gmail account logged in to our phones. Many of our accounts are also connected or linked to this Gmail and especially because of Google’s service, many users sync or save the passwords of many websites and other accounts in it. If ever your Gmail gets hacked then you may be in trouble. Due to this, many other accounts of the user can also be hacked.
How can you keep your account safe?
Today we will tell you whether your Gmail account is hacked or not. Or is it open in any other device. Many times users log in to their account in some other device. And then forget to log out. Especially if something like this happens in a public system, then the risk increases a lot.
This is the easiest way to know whether your account is hacked or not. Go to your Gmail account and check how many devices your account is opened on. After this, go to Google Account and select the Security option in the navigation panel. Here you will see ‘Manage Device’ option, on clicking which you will see how many devices your account is open on and which device is active at which time.
In such a situation, log out.
If you see any device in this list which you do not know, then quickly log out of your account from there. Because it is possible that someone is accessing your account and collecting your information or personal details without you knowing. If you check it as soon as possible and log out, your account can be saved from being hacked and your details can also be saved from being leaked. Therefore, always log in on a personal and trusted device only and keep reviewing your account from time to time.
