Google Stored Unhashed G Suite Passwords for Years

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. Google does not believe any user data was stolen during this time. The company is contacting G Suite administrators to reset affected accounts and passwords. 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.”]
