Two Factor Authentication
To ensure greater security, Google has implemented a two-factor authentication mode, so a code is sent via SMS.
With IRM protection, emails with the option applied cannot be sent to other addresses as well as downloaded, nor can a screenshot be taken. Google says such features will "protect your data even if the recipient's email account has been invalid".
Offline mode
Users will be able to use offline mode for when they are away from data networks or even offline. With this, it is possible to write and answer emails without internet, as well as search for messages of up to 90 days.
All features will be accessible by Gmail users, but with some caveats. The functionality will initially be available to G Suite users, with an option to "Try the new Gmail" displayed in the settings. Some regular users will also have access to the new Gmail, however, at random.
Google said that in the coming weeks the novelty will be available to all users.
