Keeping your data secure on Google Drive is essential, especially if you're storing sensitive or personal files. While Google provides robust built-in security measures, there are several steps users should take to maximize their safety when using the platform. This video outlines key security practices to follow for safe usage of Google Drive.

Start by securing your Google account, which controls access to all your Google services, including Drive. Visit [https://myaccount.google.com](https://myaccount.google.com), click on your profile icon in the top right, then select 'Manage your Google Account.' Under the 'Security' tab, enable two-factor authentication (2FA). This adds an extra layer of protection by requiring a second verification step—such as a text message or authentication app—when logging in, making unauthorized access significantly more difficult.

Next, be cautious when sharing files. By default, some users mistakenly set shared files to 'Anyone with the link,' which can expose your content to unintended audiences. This setting allows anyone who obtains the link to access the file, regardless of whether they were the intended recipient. To maintain privacy, especially for sensitive documents, always choose the 'Restricted' option and manually enter the email addresses of the people you wish to share with. You can also specify their level of access—view-only, comment, or edit.

Additionally, review your sharing settings periodically and audit access to your most important files. It's also recommended to avoid storing highly sensitive information like passwords, ID documents, or financial data in Google Drive unless those files are encrypted.

These basic precautions—securing your account and managing file access—form the foundation for safe usage of Google Drive and help protect against accidental data leaks or breaches.
