Audit for Google Workspace

How to Track Activity, File Sharing, and Admin Actions

Managing a Google Workspace environment without full visibility creates risk.

Many Google Admins rely on the native Admin Console to review activity, but quickly run into limitations when trying to answer critical questions:

  • Who shared sensitive files outside the domain?
  • What changes were made to user permissions?
  • How can you track admin actions across Drive, Gmail, and Groups?

If you cannot clearly track this activity, your environment has an audit visibility gap.

How Do You Audit
Google Workspace Activity Effectively?

Auditing Google Workspace requires more than basic logs. Admins need a way to:

Google Workspace
Data Discovery

  • Scan activity across Drive, Gmail, users, and groups in one place.
  • Get a clear view of user actions, access changes, and domain activity without relying on multiple logs.

Activity Monitoring
and Alerts

  • Monitor Gmail activity and detect risky behavior as it happens.
  • Set alert rules for policy violations and gain visibility into user actions and browser activity across your environment.

Investigation and
Audit History

  • Review changes across users, groups, and permissions with full context.
  • Investigate incidents with clear, time-based activity history to understand what happened and who was involved.

Close the Audit Visibility Gap with GAT Labs

GAT+ provides Google Workspace Admins with deep auditing visibility across Drive, Gmail, and Calendar. One of its key capabilities is identifying externally owned files shared into your domain, helping you address a common security blind spot around inbound file exposure. You can audit these shares at scale, apply granular filters, and take immediate remediation actions such as removing permissions or generating alerts.
 
And because we have known for years that no cloud based package could cover all your security needs, nearly a decade ago we introduced GAT Shield. A mature browser extension brings visibility and security right out to the edge of the cloud, letting you monitor and control user actions in the browser.

Frequently Asked Questions

Auditing & Reporting in
Google Workspace

What is the best way to audit Google Workspace activity?

The most effective way to audit Google Workspace activity is to use a centralized tool that tracks user actions, file sharing, and admin changes across Drive, Gmail, and users. Native logs alone are often fragmented and lack the context needed for investigations.

Organizations can improve audit visibility by using centralized reporting that connects activity across users, files, and permissions. This reduces investigation time and helps identify risks faster.

Admins can track file sharing by reviewing permissions, external access, and sharing changes across My Drive and Shared Drives. A centralized audit view makes it easier to identify public links, external collaborators, and risky access.

Yes. GAT+ is specifically designed to uncover externally owned files that have been shared into your domain. This provides a complete picture of your domain data exposure. You can filter these files by owner, date, and sharing permission to take immediate corrective action.

GAT Labs provides scheduled reports and complete permission history logs that serve as audit evidence. It documents every corrective action and permission change, making it easy for security teams to demonstrate consistent governance to external auditors.
