As St. Patrick’s Day approaches, don’t leave your digital security to luck! 🍀 Google has announced the end of Less Secure Apps (LSAs) for all Google Workspace accounts, and this change could disrupt how you access your emails and data.
🚨 Important: Google Less Secure Apps (LSA) Ending March 14, 2025
Google is phasing out LSAs, which means any apps or devices that use only a password to access Google services (like IMAP, POP, and SMTP for email) will stop working. To maintain secure access to your Google Workspace, you must switch to OAuth 2.0 authentication, the modern and more secure standard.
If you’re using older email clients like Outlook 2013, Thunderbird, or third-party apps that rely on basic username and password logins, it’s time to upgrade to avoid service disruptions.
