Google Workspace security

Google Workspace, locked down properly.

Workspace comes with serious security built in, but much of it is off or left on the defaults. We switch on the right controls for your business and keep them maintained.

Built in

What Google gives you.

Strong tools, if they're switched on and set up for how your business works.

Gmail filtering

Gmail blocks more than 99.9% of spam, phishing and malware before it reaches your team.

2-step verification

Two-step sign-in, and Google's strongest protection for the accounts that matter most, on every plan.

Alerts and audit logs

Security alerts, audit logs and investigation tools for your admins.

Phones and laptops

Control which devices can reach company data, and wipe a lost one. Basic on Starter, advanced on Plus.

Ransomware detection

On Business Standard and Plus, Drive for desktop pauses syncing when it spots ransomware, and files restore in bulk.

Vault

Keep email, chat and files for as long as the law or your auditors require, and find them when asked. On Business Plus.

What we set up

Best practice from day one, maintained every month.

We apply the same security baseline to every Workspace we look after, then tune it to how your team shares and works.

  • Every sign-in needs more than a password; admins use a physical key or passkey
  • Only the people who need admin access have it
  • Your domain protected against spoofing, with the reports checked so we know if someone tries
  • Rules on what can be shared outside the business, with a warning before it happens
  • Lost phone or laptop? Wiped from the console
  • Security alerts come to our help desk, not to an inbox nobody reads
  • When someone leaves, their mail and files stay with the business and a colleague can pick them up
