MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., March 21 (UPI) -- Google has said that all Gmail users will have HTTPS encryption, regardless of the security of their Internet connection, as emails move around Google servers.
The search giant has been attempting to strengthen security and data encryption standards after revelations that the U.S. National Security Agency was snooping the Internet, and possibly accessing Google's data centers. The move is important for the company as it relies heavily on user data to drive its services.
