CLD / CLD-04
Google Workspace security implementation
Configure Google Workspace identity, sharing and security controls according to organisational needs. The aim is understandable, tested and manageable policies.

WHEN IT HELPS
A focused response
to a defined need.
Growing Drive and group usage, poorly separated administrator accounts, uncontrolled offboarding or external collaboration requiring consistent rules.
SCOPE & OUTCOMES
What the engagement covers.
Scope
- Accounts and organisational units
- authentication
- roles
- Drive sharing
- third-party apps
- devices according to edition
- auditing
- classification/DLP where available
- offboarding
Deliverables
- Baseline assessment
- available-control matrix
- target configuration
- sharing rules
- pilot
- user tests
- administration guide and exception register
Acceptance evidence
Selected controls work; legitimate users are not blocked; access removal is tested; sensitive sharing is reviewed; edition-specific coverage differences are documented.
DELIVERY
How the work is structured.
Approach
Inventory accounts and use; clarify responsibilities; design policies; pilot; test and deploy; organise drift, exceptions and operations.
Prerequisites & responsibilities
Customer: tenant/account access, billing, data owners, administrators and residency constraints. Provider: architecture and configuration under shared responsibility.
Scope factors
Clouds, accounts, regions, resources, tenants, clusters, connectors and automation maturity. Consumption, transfers, storage and licenses are separate from the service.
Questions to clarify
Which edition is subscribed to? Which groups or drives hold critical data? How are guests, third-party apps and departures managed?
IMPORTANT BOUNDARIES
DLP, investigation and advanced device-management capabilities vary by edition. The scope is defined from the features available in the subscribed service.
Capabilities vary by edition, region and availability status. A posture score is neither certification nor a guarantee of complete detection.
IN PRACTICE
Illustrative situations.
These examples describe possible engagements and target outcomes. They are not customer references or achieved results.
Scenario 01
An agency shares customer files from personal workspaces. Project: organise shared spaces and appoint owners. Target outcome: less employee-dependent access and better-controlled departures.
Scenario 02
An association wants stronger accounts without disrupting volunteers. Project: deploy authentication and sharing rules through pilot groups. Target outcome: supported adoption; users without compatible means receive an explicitly addressed path.
Technology and reference context
Examples: native Google Workspace controls and security/audit features available in the subscribed edition.
The final technology set is agreed during scoping, based on interoperability, licensing, access rights and operating requirements.
CONNECTED SERVICES
Build the next step.
These services can complement the engagement. They are not automatically included.
