Google inadvertently stored passwords in an unhashed, but still encrypted, state for several years. Passwords were stored in the unhashed mode for nearly 14 years, the company says.

This is the second big security issue Google has faced within the past two weeks in recent months. Facebook has also had trouble storing passwords in plaintext, some of which dates back to 2012.”]
