Google Workspace comes with strong security features, but many of them are off by default or only partly configured. The result: shared drives open to 'anyone with the link', admins without 2-Step Verification and phishing that slips through. Mavinz provides Google Workspace security configuration and hardening that closes these gaps.
We review your tenant against Google's recommended practices and recognised benchmarks such as the CIS Google Workspace Foundations Benchmark, then configure identity, Gmail, Drive, device and admin settings to match how your organisation actually works.
Why Workspace security needs attention
Email and file sharing are the most common routes for phishing and accidental data exposure. A few well-chosen settings remove a large share of that risk.
Enforced 2-Step Verification and strong admin controls
Better phishing and malware protection in Gmail
Controlled external sharing in Drive
Alerts for suspicious sign-ins and activity
