Either their security or PR is great (or both?)
- sophacles 5y agoThere was this one: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Aurora https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Aurora It seems that the level of access gained could have been used for a larger breach but fortunately the attackers had different motives.
- robocat 5y agoGoogle banned Windows throughout the organisation in 2010 due to this (with some well fenced exceptions where Windows was unavoidable). 1. Google will do costly things to be secure. 2. At the time I did not hear of any other organisation following Google’s lead. 3. They did not reverse the ban later.

- rodgerd 5y ago> has google ever had a breach? They've been completely breached by Chinese agencies in the past, and IIRC the revelations in the Snowden leaks prompted them to redo their entire internal networking layout because of concerns about state-level spying. On the Android front they keep tightening up access (removing more power from root, more use of SELinux and other controls) because of breaches in one form or another.
