Google is offering 2GB of free Drive storage to those who take an account security checkup

Himanshu, 09 February, 2016

Today is Safer Internet Day - a day aimed at promoting the safe, responsible, and positive use of digital technology. And just like last year, Google is celebrating the day by offering free Drive storage to those who perform a security audit of their Google account.

In case you didn't take it last year, the Google Security Checkup lets you quickly review and manage your Google Account’s security settings. These include recovery options, connected devices, account permissions, and 2-step verification settings.

Those who complete the audit - a process which takes just a few minutes - will be entitled to 2GB of free Drive storage. Keep in mind that the free storage might not show up immediately. Last year, Google gave a week's window to complete the security checkup - it isn't yet clear how much time do we have this year, so act fast if you want that extra Drive storage.
