Gmail Phishing Auditing and Remediation
Gmail’s native filters block many threats. GAT Labs helps you find, investigate, and remove phishing emails that still reach user inboxes, at scale, with full audit trails and controlled access.
The Growing Phishing Challenge for Google Admins
Modern phishing attacks are built to bypass email filters, meaning malicious emails can still reach user inboxes even in well configured Google Workspace environments.
As a Google Admin, you face unique challenges in the fight against Gmail phishing:
Evolving Gmail Zero-Day & Spear Phishing Bypasses
Are highly targeted spear phishing and zero-day attacks, specifically crafted for Gmail, consistently slipping past your current filters, putting your most critical users at risk? These aren’t generic attacks; they’re designed to evade Gmail’s built-in security.
Blind Spots in User Gmail Inboxes
Finding out about a threat only after a user clicks isn’t enough. You need the visibility to remediate malicious emails while they sit in the inbox.
Manual, Time-Consuming Gmail Remediation
Is your team spending valuable time manually searching for and removing phishing emails from compromised Gmail accounts after a breach, impacting productivity and increasing the risk of data loss? You need a faster, more efficient way to respond.
User Reliance & Phishing Education Fatigue
Are you constantly relying on user training as your primary defense against new Gmail phishing variants, only to face ongoing human error and repeated breaches? Admins need robust technology to back up their users, not just endless training.
One missed email can result in massive financial loss, regulatory penalties, and long-term brand damage.
Google Workspace needs an admin-grade solution that can audit, respond, and scale.
What You Can Do After
Phishing Emails Reach Inboxes
When phishing emails bypass Gmail filters, Google Admins need fast ways to investigate impact and take action. GAT Labs provides domain-wide visibility and controlled remediation tools designed for post delivery response.
1. Search and Bulk Delete Malicious Emails
✔️ Use Email Content Search to scan every inbox for suspicious senders, keywords, attachments, or link patterns.
✔️ With GAT Unlock, you can delete or quarantine those emails in bulk, instantly cleaning all affected inboxes.
2. Audit Domain-Wide Gmail Activity
✔️ Search all Gmail activity by sender, recipient, date, subject, message content, or regex.
✔️ Filter by OUs, groups, or custom attributes
✔️ Export detailed audit logs to satisfy GDPR, ISO 27001, SOX, and internal investigations.
3. Automate Your Incident Response
✔️ Set up alert-based workflows with GAT Flow to automatically suspend compromised accounts, notify Security Officers, or trigger follow-up actions, no coding required.
✔️ For email removal, Admins can use the GAT Unlock feature in GAT+, which requires approval from a Security Officer. However, to act faster during high-risk incidents, pre-approval rules can be configured in advance. This allows specific Admins to remove phishing emails without waiting for manual approval, reducing response times and stopping threats before they spread.
