Gmail will soon be able to warn its users about each message electronics post officey that arrives if it is under an unencrypted connection (ssl).
Google already uses HTTPS to use gmail, in order to ensure the encrypted connection between the user's web browser and its servers. Also, Google and other e-mail providers have begun encrypting the links on their servers. But not everyone, at least not yet.
A Google research project in collaboration with University του Μίτσιγκαν και το Πανεπιστήμιο του Ιλινόις, διαπίστωσε ότι η ασφάλεια ηλεκτρονικού ταχυδρομείου έχει βελτιωθεί κατά τα τελευταία δύο χρόνια, και ότι το 94% των εισερχόμενων messages in Gmail it comes with some form ID cards. But there is still a 6% that moves without certification.
Google found it also malicious DNS servers that serve fake routing information on email servers.
To protect its users, Google has decided to warn email recipients which of their incoming emails are not encrypted from the beginning to the end. This feature is expected to come in the coming months.
