Google announced today that administrators of G Suite accounts can now enable and configure a special alert when a government-backed cyber-espionage group is trying to hack into one of their company's user accounts.

This new alert is available via the "Admin Console > Reports > Manage Alerts > Government backed attack" option available through the standard G Suite super admin account.

The feature isn't new. Google has been warning Gmail users of government-backed attacks since 2012, an alert system it revamped and redesigned in 2017.
