Google has introduced a new security feature to drive to help users stay on top of potentially malicious files, according to reports.

Reports said that Google Drive will now start displaying a warning banner when you are about to download and open a potentially dubious document, image, or any type of file, reports Android Central.

The new feature is rolling out across all Google Workspace, G Suite Basic and G Suite Business tiers.

Users will recognise the security alert if they have been using Google Docs, Sheets, Slides and Drawings.
