🚨 Cybersecurity Alert for Gmail Users 🚨
Google has warned 2.5 billion Gmail users to reset their passwords following a major security breach.

Hackers from the group Shiny Hunters reportedly exploited a third-party Salesforce integration to steal Gmail-linked contact data. That stolen information is now fueling phishing campaigns and potential account takeovers at a massive scale.

Why it’s critical for professionals & businesses:
1. Compromised Gmail credentials unlock banking apps, cloud storage, and workplace systems.
2. With billions of stolen contacts, phishing attacks will appear more convincing than ever.

🔐 How to stay secure:
1. Reset your Gmail password immediately.
2. Use unique, complex passwords (no re-use).
3. Enable two-factor authentication or passkeys.
4. Only log in through official Gmail channels.

Now is the time to strengthen your security posture.
