About Confidence Platform for Google

Confidence Platform for Google is a comprehensive solution that empowers organizations to strengthen data security, ensure compliance, and simplify administration within their Google Workspace environment. It provides a unified control center for robust governance and risk management, enabling businesses to effectively monitor and protect sensitive data across their digital workspace.

The platform is built around five core modules that work in concert to deliver end-to-end management:

  • Administration: It serves as the operational nucleus for your Google Workspace, providing centralized, multi-tenant control over user identities and collaborative spaces. It streamlines the entire user lifecycle – from onboarding to offboarding – and offers granular, role-based access controls. This ensures precise management of permissions, licenses, and security settings across the organization from a single pane of glass.

  • Governance: It streamlines and automates critical lifecycle management processes for both shared drives and users. This module allows administrators to create renewal profiles for ongoing shared drive compliance and establish service templates for user provisioning and lifecycle management, enabling business users to submit requests directly via MyHub for streamlined operations.

  • Risk intelligence: It provides deep visibility into your data landscape. This module continuously analyzes Google Drive items to classify sensitivity and assess exposure levels, automatically identifying and prioritizing high-risk objects. Detailed reports on ungoverned users and external sharing empower you to quickly address potential data leaks before they become incidents.

  • Policy enforcement: It automates compliance at scale by translating organizational rules into enforced actions. Administrators can create customized policies to monitor settings, sharing, and permissions across Google Workspace. The module automatically detects violations and can either remediate them instantly, report them for review, or route them through an approval workflow, ensuring policy adherence is consistent and efficient.

  • Information management: It provides a comprehensive framework for managing the entire information lifecycle of Google Drive content. This module enables organizations to automate retention, enforce disposal policies, and classify data through rules and labels, ensuring regulatory compliance and efficient data governance from creation to archival or destruction.

By integrating these powerful capabilities, Confidence Platform for Google provides a robust framework to streamline operations, enhance your security posture, and navigate the complexities of cloud environments with full confidence.
