Google Workspace security — Drive sharing, OAuth apps and admin roles.
Google secures the platform; you own Drive sharing, third-party OAuth grants, admin-role sprawl and 2-step verification. WoneShield secures that layer with continuous SSPM plus expert assessment and hardening.

Why Google Workspace security
The risks Google Workspace won't fix for you.
Public & external Drive sharing
‘Anyone with the link’ files and broad external sharing expose documents to the entire internet, indefinitely.
Third-party OAuth apps
Apps granted access to Gmail and Drive through OAuth become a standing data-exfiltration path no one revisits.
Admin sprawl & weak 2SV
Too many super-admins and unenforced 2-step verification turn one phished account into a domain-wide breach.

FAQ
Google Workspace security, answered.
Is Google Workspace secure by default?+
Google secures the platform; your Drive sharing, OAuth grants, admin roles and 2SV settings are yours to manage — and they're where Workspace data exposure happens. WoneShield secures that layer continuously.
How is this different from Google's Security Health?+
Security Health gives recommendations; WoneShield delivers continuous, CIS-mapped assessment of Drive sharing, OAuth apps, admin roles and 2SV, with expert remediation and monitoring.
Do you find publicly shared Drive files and risky OAuth apps?+
Yes — both are among the most common Workspace risks and are core to every assessment and continuous check.
Is it agentless?+
Yes — read-first, least-privilege API access via the Admin SDK. No agents.
How much does Google Workspace security cost?+
Start with a free Google Workspace security assessment. Ongoing protection starts at $750/month via WoneShield Posture, with custom pricing at scale.
