As the scope of security threats on the Internet have increased, security professionals at Google have an increased responsibility to adjusting to this new state of security on the Internet.  Google is constantly working to gain the upper-hand to threats online and to understand how these threats affect their customers and the Internet community. Google has helped to define the way people do business online.  But in this ever-changing environment that does not mean that Google is immune to the complexities that an online world can bring.

One way Google is doing this is by monitoring how its users are using Google Apps.  Google Apps are Google’s online applications and include word processing, spreadsheet and presentation applications.
