Why Google Admins
Need This Guide?
Manual monitoring is a losing battle. You can’t be everywhere at once, and native Google tools often leave critical blind spots. Moving from reactive to proactive security is key to maintaining a secure and compliant Google Workspace environment without constant manual effort.
This guide provides the clear structure you need to achieve total control over user behavior and data flow across your domain.
- Full Browser-Level Audit: Track every user action outside of Drive, including site visits, searches, chats, extensions, and more, with near real-time visibility.
- Advanced Data Loss Prevention: Proactively set rules to cancel risky file downloads based on size and file type, and enforce web filtering with block, warn, and location-based access controls.
- Deep Drive Forensics (5+ Years): Gain long-term, comprehensive audit trails for all Google Drive events. Who viewed, edited, deleted, or shared sensitive files, for unparalleled compliance and investigation support.
- Centralize all alerts and events, instantly identifying suspicious activity (e.g., mass downloads, off-site access) and providing the evidence needed for rapid HR/Legal response.
- Utilize Delegated Auditors to empower managers or regional teams to review data relevant to their scope without ever needing Super Admin access.
It’s built for admins who want guaranteed visibility and the ability to track and control user activity across both the browser and Google Drive.
