We’ll reach out within one business with next steps.
Google Workspace is powerful but insecure out of the box. Adelia Risk performs detailed security audits that check every critical setting in your Google Workspace environment. We identify what’s misconfigured and prioritize the fixes. Then we give you a clear roadmap to lock things down.
In a typical Google Workspace security audit, Adelia Risk typically finds 60-80% of security settings misconfigured or left at defaults. IT teams are busy keeping things running. Business owners are focused on running their company. That means security settings get missed. Unfortunately, one wrong setting is all it takes for a hacker to get in.
At Adelia Risk, we audit dozens of environments a year. The one thing we want to make clear is that the “set it and forget it” assumption is always wrong.
Just look at stories like the company that exposed 1 million records due to the wrong Sharing settings or the attack that used Salesforce to steal data from Google Workspace.
Google secures the underlying platform. You’re responsible for how it’s configured. Sharing settings, admin permissions, third-party app access, email authentication…these are all YOUR responsibility. Google provides the tools, but you have to use them correctly (either on your own or through our Google Workspace Security Management service).
This information catches a lot of business owners off guard. Google’s marketing might make it sound like they handle everything. They don’t.
Business email compromise doesn’t discriminate by company size. Hackers send millions of phishing emails and see who bites. If one of your employees clicks the wrong link, your size won’t save you. You won’t have a security team to catch it. That’s what makes small businesses attractive targets.
It doesn’t matter whether you’re on Google Workspace or some other email system. They’re sending so many messages that they don’t discriminate.
Two-factor authentication is one setting. We check 50 more. Are your admins allowed to recover their own accounts? Can users forward emails externally? Are third-party apps accessing your Drive data? 2FA is table stakes. It’s not a complete security program.
During a Google Workspace security audit, we’ve seen businesses with 2FA enabled get compromised because everything else was wide open.
Adelia Risk likes Google Workspace, and we use it to run our business! It’s well-designed, reliable, and gives businesses powerful tools. But Google’s default settings prioritize convenience over security. That means your employees can probably share files externally without restriction, third-party apps may have access to your data, and email spoofing protection is likely turned off.
We see this constantly during Google Workspace security audits. Businesses assume Google has them covered, then we find a big list of fixes that need to be implemented.
With Adelia Risk’s audit, you get everything you need to fix your Google Workspace security gaps.
Every critical security setting in your Google Workspace, checked and documented. Our process goes well beyond a quick scan. This audit is a thorough review by security professionals who know what to look for.
We’ve found this is the most useful part for clients. Instead of a list of 50 problems, you know exactly where to start. Your report organizes findings into four priority levels:
You won’t be guessing where to find settings. Every recommendation includes screenshots and step-by-step instructions for how to make the fix. Hand it to your IT team or follow along yourself.
You’ll set up a temporary and free admin account in the Google Admin Console for us. It will take you 5 minutes. We can’t see your data!
Our security team reviews all 50+ checkpoints, documents current configurations, and flags anything that’s misconfigured or left at risky defaults. Typical turnaround: 2-4 weeks.
You’ll get a full detailed report, including screenshots, paths to find the settings, and specific recommendations about what to implement customized to your company.
A one-time Google Workspace security audit is a great start. But Google changes settings, new features roll out, and employees make mistakes. We’ve seen clients who fixed everything, then six months later found new risks from features they didn’t know existed.
Adelia Risk’s Google Workspace security management service keeps your environment secure continuously.
This is the first question everyone asks before a Google Workplace security audit, and the answer is ABSOLUTELY NOT. The Global Reader role we use gives us access to settings only. We cannot read your emails, view your documents, or access any of your data. We see configuration options, but not the content.
Typically 2-4 weeks from when you grant us access. The timeline depends on how quickly you can set up our admin account and schedule the findings review. Most clients have their report within two weeks.
Nothing. Once you’ve granted access, we handle everything. You’ll hear from us when the Google Workplace security audit report is ready to review. Clients tell us this is refreshingly hands-off.
We can do it for you. A lot of our clients don’t have dedicated IT staff, so we offer implementation services after the audit. We also offer our Google Workspace security management option, which includes annual audits, quarterly setting checks, 24/7 monitoring and more. We’ll handle the technical changes while you focus on running your business.
Google releases so many updates that we’d recommend checking more often. But annually is the minimum to catch drift. Your business changes too: new employees, new tools, new processes. An annual Google Workspace security audit catches configuration drift and makes sure new features are set up securely.
Many companies actually need more than annual audits. That’s why we also offer our Google Workspace security management service, which includes quarterly checks, advanced email protection, and more.
The audit is a point-in-time review. You get the report, implement the fixes, and you’re done until next year, for a one-time fee. The managed service adds continuous monitoring, quarterly checks, and advanced email protection for an ongoing service fee. If you want ongoing peace of mind without thinking about it, the Google Workspace Security Management plan is the way to go.
Good question. We monitor for suspicious sign-in activity, admin configuration changes, unusual mailbox access patterns, and security rule modifications. If something looks wrong, we alert you. Think of it as a security camera for your Google Workspace environment.
Find out what’s misconfigured before a hacker does. Get your 50+ point Google Workspace security audit and a clear path to fixing the gaps.
