But Google Inc. goes further more ahead and offered its users a permanent 2GB FREE google drive storage.
Google today released an official statement and stated that Anyone who’ll take part in Security Checkup within the next week will get a permanent 2GB FREE google drive storage.

Here’s what it does:
- Ensures your account recovery information is current If google detect suspicious activity in your account, Google use your recovery info to get in touch and make sure no one but you gains access.
- Lets you review recent sign-in activity Reviewing this lets you validate the sign-ins are coming from you and not someone who shouldn’t be using your credentials.
- Confirms the apps and devices that access some account information This step lets you monitor this list and remove apps and devices that don’t need access to your account any more.
After you’ve gone through the checkup successfully, you’ll see three green check boxes (see below) that confirm you’re eligible for the free storage and, more importantly, that you’ve taken steps to enhance your online safety. Google will be granting the storage automatically to everyone around 28 February 2015 and google will send you an email when your adjustment is complete.
