Surprisingly Simple: Security within the G Suite

Since SoftwareONE Germany introduced Google's G Suite to its portfolio and started offering consulting on its benefits, customers have been amazed when you respond to their questions about the slightly unfamiliar technology and the astonishingly simple solutions it frequently has in store. Today’s topic for instance: How are corporate data and devices protected when using G Suite?

Google and the cloud go together like peas in a pod. Future generations will wonder which of them arrived first. Because of this, Google is uniquely familiar with the security issues that companies anticipate or fear when shifting their business or communications to the cloud.

A simple comparison: A bank stores its cash where it believes the cash will be protected. So in its own safe – or, to put it another way, in an area where that is governed by its own, proprietary and proven security strategy. On no accounts will it deposit notes and coins with another bank. The same principle applies to Google’s system.

This means that G Suite customers benefit from the same protection that Google itself relies on.

Enterprise data can be protected in G Suite using security options such as two-step confirmation and single sign-on (SSO). Mobile device management also helps to prevent dangerous data loss when devices go missing or employees leave the company.

Customers also have the option to archive email messages and recorded chats. Users alone decide how long this data is stored.

Security settings can be easily configured from a central admin console.

Improved collaboration: Simple, intuitive tools that employees already know promote real-time communication and smooth workflows.

Security and control: A secure environment that meets the highest data protection and security standards, with easy management of users, devices and data. All data storage and compliance requirements are satisfied.

Cost savings and transparency: The easy-to-use platform is based on a uniform, uncomplicated pricing model and ensures lower operating costs. Customers do not enter into any long-term commitments and there are no additional costs for basics such as telephone support or critical security functions.

There is no doubt: The modern workplace is a must for efficient and easy collaboration in today’s world. If you want your employees to be able to cooperate at any time, on any device and from any location, while still ensuring your security requirements are met, then do not hesitate to contact us!
