Google Offering 2GB of Extra Drive Storage to Complete A Security Checkup

February 10th is known as Safer Internet Day.  In that being said Google is giving an extra 2GB of Google Drive storage to anyone who completes this security checkup by February 17th.

This checkup makes sure your account recovery information is current, asks you to review recent sign-in activity, and lets you see which apps and devices can access your account. (Which is good practice anyways). It's worth it since Google will gift you with extra storage.


The company says it’ll give qualifying Google Drive accounts the boost on February 28 and you’ll get an email confirming the change.

UPDATE: Google Apps for Work and Google Apps for Education users are not eligible for the bonus storage but should still consider taking the Security Checkup.
