Google Workspace Security Audit
Unsure if your Google for Education domain is set up correctly? Are there any settings that are not secure within your domain? We can carry out a full audit of your domain, with support to implement any improvements.
What is a Security Audit?
A Google Security Audit provides your organisation with a detailed report on each setting within your Google Admin console, along with recommendations to optimize your Google for Education security features. The comprehensive report, over 60 pages long, includes an in-depth analysis of each setting, as well as actionable recommendations and support articles. The audit culminates in a 3-hour workshop where our security experts discuss findings, provide technical demonstrations, and present strategic solutions tailored to your organisation.

For organisations with multiple Google Workspace for Education domains, the audit ensures consistent settings across all schools and departments. Ultimately, a security audit provides peace of mind and assists in creating a cohesive cloud security strategy. It also fosters effective collaboration and clear communication between senior leadership and your IT departments.
