So far our context-aware access solution obtained these signals from first party (i.e. Google) sources, such as Endpoint Verification. However our vision has always been to help customers to fully leverage their existing investments in security tools and controls, add key functionality and signals to Google’s context-aware access to achieve superior access control security posture for our customers. <a href="https://cloud.google.com/blog/products/identity-security/google-cloud-announces-new-partners-in-its-beyondcorp-alliance" target="_blank">The BeyondCorp Alliance</a> is a group of partners that share our Zero Trust vision and who are committed to working with us to help our joint customers make it a reality. </div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>Today, we are excited to announce the first integrations (in beta) with our BeyondCorp Alliance partners Check Point and Lookout, to use third party signals in our context-aware access decisions. For example, the mobile threat defence system might detect malware on the device and notify Google about a reduced security assurance, and customer-defined access rules can reduce the level of access allowed from such devices, without impacting access for that user from other devices or for other users. The integrations are built using the <a href="https://gsuiteupdates.googleblog.com/2020/09/new-device-management-api-generally-available.html" target="_blank">new Devices API</a> we announced earlier this year. The API was designed to be used by partners in the BeyondCorp Alliance to add device security metadata, and also by customers to manage their device fleet. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVpwsMlc5h1KRNWIhmeitCz-rfXmFypLV2OpSuR5SRbCFXqYjFgSnfwpkvWgXdBtdooMaxBDuP5VVOg9L9pjh35WEoOHe0D35wtys8tap2HRRnaTzMbeTsLNB9qJvYbuLqacX4-7mlTL4/s1600/BeyondCorp+Allice+Overview.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="866" data-original-width="1600" height="346" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVpwsMlc5h1KRNWIhmeitCz-rfXmFypLV2OpSuR5SRbCFXqYjFgSnfwpkvWgXdBtdooMaxBDuP5VVOg9L9pjh35WEoOHe0D35wtys8tap2HRRnaTzMbeTsLNB9qJvYbuLqacX4-7mlTL4/w640-h346/BeyondCorp+Allice+Overview.png" width="640" /></a></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><h3 style="text-align: left;">Getting started </h3><div><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><b>Admins</b>: Google customers who use Checkpoint or Lookout as their mobile threat defense solutions can benefit from the integration.

The integrations, initially available in beta, are built using the <a href="https://gsuiteupdates.googleblog.com/2020/09/new-device-management-api-generally-available.html" target="_blank">Devices API</a> and enable customers to use third party signals in context-aware access decisions. </div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><h3 style="text-align: left;">Who’s impacted</h3><div>Admins </div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><h3 style="text-align: left;">Why it’s important </h3><div>In the <a href="https://cloud.google.com/beyondcorp" target="_blank">BeyondCorp</a> security model, device inventory, state, and security posture are central to making context-aware access decisions. So far our context-aware access solution obtained these signals from first party (i.e. Google) sources, such as Endpoint Verification. However our vision has always been to help customers to fully leverage their existing investments in security tools and controls, add key functionality and signals to Google’s context-aware access to achieve superior access control security posture for our customers. <a href="https://cloud.google.com/blog/products/identity-security/google-cloud-announces-new-partners-in-its-beyondcorp-alliance" target="_blank">The BeyondCorp Alliance</a> is a group of partners that share our Zero Trust vision and who are committed to working with us to help our joint customers make it a reality. </div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>Today, we are excited to announce the first integrations (in beta) with our BeyondCorp Alliance partners Check Point and Lookout, to use third party signals in our context-aware access decisions. For example, the mobile threat defence system might detect malware on the device and notify Google about a reduced security assurance, and customer-defined access rules can reduce the level of access allowed from such devices, without impacting access for that user from other devices or for other users. The integrations are built using the <a href="https://gsuiteupdates.googleblog.com/2020/09/new-device-management-api-generally-available.html" target="_blank">new Devices API</a> we announced earlier this year. The API was designed to be used by partners in the BeyondCorp Alliance to add device security metadata, and also by customers to manage their device fleet. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVpwsMlc5h1KRNWIhmeitCz-rfXmFypLV2OpSuR5SRbCFXqYjFgSnfwpkvWgXdBtdooMaxBDuP5VVOg9L9pjh35WEoOHe0D35wtys8tap2HRRnaTzMbeTsLNB9qJvYbuLqacX4-7mlTL4/s1600/BeyondCorp+Allice+Overview.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="866" data-original-width="1600" height="346" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVpwsMlc5h1KRNWIhmeitCz-rfXmFypLV2OpSuR5SRbCFXqYjFgSnfwpkvWgXdBtdooMaxBDuP5VVOg9L9pjh35WEoOHe0D35wtys8tap2HRRnaTzMbeTsLNB9qJvYbuLqacX4-7mlTL4/w640-h346/BeyondCorp+Allice+Overview.png" width="640" /></a></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><h3 style="text-align: left;">Getting started </h3><div><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><b>Admins</b>: Google customers who use Checkpoint or Lookout as their mobile threat defense solutions can benefit from the integration.
