We conduct a comprehensive review of your Google Workspace environment — identifying vulnerabilities, hardening configurations, and delivering a clear remediation roadmap.
Google Workspace is the operational backbone of modern organizations — Gmail, Drive, Meet, and Docs hold your most sensitive data. Misconfigurations, over-permissioned accounts, and shadow app integrations create silent entry points for attackers.
Our security audit delivers a thorough assessment of every layer: admin policies, user access controls, email authentication, data sharing settings, and third-party OAuth apps. We don't just find problems — we fix them.
Our team holds a strong understanding of Google Workspace security best practices and is authorized to implement configuration changes directly within your environment — no hand-off delays.
Our structured audit maps to Google's own security framework, covering every administrative domain and user-facing control.
| Audit Area | What We Examine | Risk Level | Deliverable |
|---|---|---|---|
| Admin Console Policies | Password policies, session timeouts, super-admin access, login challenges | High | Config hardening report |
| Identity & Access | User roles, group memberships, delegated admin rights, service accounts | High | Privilege reduction plan |
| Email Security | SPF, DKIM, DMARC, spam filters, phishing protections, routing rules | High | Email auth remediation |
| Multi-Factor Authentication | MFA enrollment rates, enforcement policies, recovery options, 2SV gaps | High | MFA rollout guide |
| Drive & Sharing Settings | External sharing, link visibility, download restrictions, team drives | Medium | Sharing policy update |
| Third-Party App Access | OAuth app permissions, marketplace apps, Connected Apps inventory | High | App allowlist & revocation |
| Data Loss Prevention | DLP rules for Gmail & Drive, content detectors, alert configurations | Medium | DLP rule templates |
| Audit Logs & Alerts | Admin activity logs, login audit, Drive audit, alert center rules | Medium | Alert center configuration |
| Mobile Device Management | MDM enrollment, device policies, remote wipe capability, app management | Medium | MDM policy hardening |
| Endpoint Verification | Device trust, certificate management, context-aware access rules | Low–Med | Context-aware access setup |
A structured methodology ensures nothing is missed and every finding is actionable.
We define audit boundaries, gather admin read-only access, and document your current Workspace edition, user count, and organizational units.
We systematically review every Admin Console setting across all audit areas, benchmarked against CIS Google Workspace Foundations.
Findings are catalogued and risk-scored. We identify misconfigurations, over-permissioned users, and insecure app integrations.
You receive a prioritized findings report with risk ratings, evidence screenshots, and step-by-step remediation instructions for each issue.
Our team implements approved changes directly in your Workspace — applying policy updates, tightening permissions, and configuring protections.
We re-verify all remediated items, document the final security posture, and provide ongoing monitoring access through the Intel Web Security Portal.
Your dedicated access point for continuous Google Workspace security monitoring. The Intel Web Security Portal provides real-time visibility into your environment with AI-generated recommendations — so you're never caught off-guard.
Continuous monitoring of your Workspace environment with instant alerts for suspicious logins, unauthorized data exports, and policy violations.
For every detected incident, the portal generates a contextual AI remediation plan — actionable steps ranked by urgency and impact for your specific scenario.
Scheduled and on-demand security reports summarizing activity trends, risk changes, and open findings — ready for your IT team or compliance needs.
Stay ahead of emerging threats with feeds tailored to Google Workspace — phishing campaigns, credential stuffing patterns, and vulnerable OAuth app advisories.
Beyond the audit, these are the foundational controls every organization should have in place.
Mandate 2-Step Verification for every account — especially admins. Use hardware security keys or Google Prompt for highest assurance. Never rely on SMS alone.
Enroll high-value accounts (executives, finance, IT) in Google's Advanced Protection Program for the strongest phishing and account-takeover defenses.
Publish and enforce SPF, DKIM, and a DMARC policy of at minimum p=quarantine. Enable Gmail's enhanced pre-delivery message scanning.
Limit Google Drive sharing to organization-only by default. Disable "Anyone with the link" for sensitive organizational units and audit existing public links quarterly.
Require device enrollment before granting Workspace access. Enforce screen locks, encryption, and retain the ability to remote-wipe lost or compromised devices.
Regularly review Connected Apps in the Admin Console. Revoke access for unused or unrecognized apps and maintain an allowlist of approved integrations.
Assign the minimum admin role required. Avoid standing super-admin access — use time-limited privilege escalation and separate accounts for admin tasks.
Enable all default alerts and add custom rules for bulk email forwarding, mass Drive downloads, and new admin account creation. Route alerts to your SIEM or ticketing system.
Use Context-Aware Access to restrict Workspace access based on device trust, IP range, and geographic location — blocking access from untrusted endpoints automatically.
