Your Google Workspace Data Is Everywhere.
Is It Safe?
Every file shared, copied, or left behind by a departing employee is a potential exposure. GAT gives IT, Security, and Compliance teams a complete audit of every file, permission, and external share across the domain, with the controls to fix what they find.
Sensitive Data in Google Workspace Spreads Faster Than You Can Track It
Google Workspace is built for collaboration. Files move quickly across users, teams, and external partners. Without dedicated data discovery tooling, most organisations cannot tell where their sensitive data is, who can reach it, or whether existing permissions are still appropriate.
Google's Native Tools Don't Go Far Enough
The Google Workspace Admin console offers basic investigation capabilities, but enterprise data discovery often requires Vault, APIs, or tools like BigQuery. The native UI is limited in filtering, retention, and large-scale export compared to dedicated security platforms.
Uncontrolled External Sharing
Files set to “Anyone with the link” accumulate over months and years. PII, financial records, and confidential documents end up reachable by people outside your organisation, with no admin aware it is happening.
Orphaned Files from Former Employees
When staff leave, their Drive files stay. Without proactive ownership transfer at offboarding, sensitive data sits in inactive accounts with no owner, no governance, and no visibility into who can still access it.
GAT is a dedicated audit and security platform
for Google Workspace.
GAT is the only full-stack audit and security platform built specifically for Google Workspace.
One suite covers data discovery, sharing audit, real-time alerting, bulk remediation, compliance reporting, and browser-level controls.
Google Workspace Data Discovery
Scan every Drive file, Shared Drive, Gmail inbox, and connected app across the domain. GAT surfaces sharing configurations and file data that Google’s own admin tools do not expose.
Real-Time Alerts and DLP
Set alert rules that fire the moment sensitive data is shared outside policy. GAT Shield extends that coverage to the browser, with live monitoring of Chrome activity, downloads, and site visits across your users.
Drive File and Sharing Audit
See every file’s sharing status, owner, last modified date, and access permissions in a single filterable view. Identify public links, external collaborators, and overprivileged access without writing a script.
Bulk Remediation at Scale
Change permissions, transfer file ownership, and enforce policy across thousands of files in one operation. No scripting. Every action is logged for your audit trail.
GDPR and Compliance Reporting
Generate audit-ready reports for GDPR, DSAR requests, and internal reviews. Schedule them automatically or pull on demand. DSAR responses that used to take weeks take hours.
Multi-Domain and Delegation
Manage multiple Google Workspace domains from one interface. Delegate specific audit tasks to HR, legal, or compliance teams without granting superadmin rights.

Data Discovery FAQs for Google Workspace
Data Security Posture Management (DSPM) for Google Workspace is the practice of continuously discovering, classifying, and securing sensitive data across Google Drive, Shared Drives, and Gmail. It answers where your data is, who can access it, and whether those permissions match your security policy. Most DSPM tools are built for infrastructure environments. GAT is built specifically for the Google Workspace collaboration layer.
Google’s native admin console gives you a broad view of your domain but has significant limits at the file level. It does not let you filter your entire Drive estate by sharing type, owner status, or external collaborator. It does not support bulk remediation across thousands of files. And it does not produce the audit exports that compliance teams need for GDPR or DSAR obligations. GAT fills those gaps and works on top of what Google provides, not instead of it.
Yes. When a DSAR arrives, GAT+ lets you run a domain-wide search for any file or email tied to the data subject, review sharing permissions, revoke inappropriate access, and export a full audit record for your response. Organisations that previously spent two to three weeks on a DSAR typically complete the same process in hours using GAT+. You can learn more about it here
Yes. GAT supports multi-tenancy, meaning you can manage and audit multiple Google Workspace domains from a single interface. This is particularly useful for managed service providers, enterprises that have grown through acquisition, or any organisation running more than one domain and needing a consistent security and audit practice across all of them.
