Google Downplays Security Concerns Affecting Docs

[Terry Olaes]

Google has acknowledged some security issues that affects Google Docs but is telling everyone that they are “far from critical.” Still, they have addressed the concerns head-on and posted information in the help-pages for Docs related to the issues.

Google may make changes to Docs as a result of Barkah's report. "We are also exploring alternative design options that might further address the concerns. We'd like to thank the researcher for sharing his concerns with us," [Google Docs product manager Jonathan] Rochelle wrote.
