Google announced an AI-driven ransomware detection feature for Drive for desktop (Windows/macOS) that analyzes abnormal file behaviors—leveraging VirusTotal signals—to lock suspected impacted files and guide users to restore clean versions from up to 25 days of history. Trained on diverse work file types and focused on behavior rather than specific ransomware signatures, the capability is in beta starting Sept. 30 for Business Standard and above at no extra cost, with general availability expected by end of 2025.
