dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><h3 style="text-align: left;">What’s changing </h3>We’re enhancing Context-Aware Access (CAA) with a beta that enables admins to use it to control SAML apps. This gives admins the ability to control access to SAML apps based on the user, the device, and the context they are in when they are trying to access an app.<br /><br />CAA for SAML apps will work for customers that use Google as the primary identity provider (IdP) to enable access to third party apps from <a href="https://support.google.com/a/table/9217027" target="_blank">pre-integrated SAML apps</a> or <a href="https://support.google.com/a/answer/6087519" target="_blank">custom SAML apps</a>. It’s available to G Suite Enterprise, G Suite Enterprise for Education, Cloud Identity Premium, and Drive Enterprise customers only. See our post on the Cloud Blog to <a href="https://cloud.google.com/blog/products/g-suite/6-new-controls-to-help-g-suite-customers-stay-secure" target="_blank">learn how this and other launches can help G Suite customers stay secure</a>.<br /><br /><h3 style="text-align: left;">Who’s impacted </h3>Admins only<br /><br /><h3 style="text-align: left;">Why you’d use it </h3>Using Context-Aware Access, you can create granular access control policies to apps based on attributes including the user, location, device security status, and IP address. This can improve your security posture by reducing the chances that there’s unintended access to specific apps and the data in them. Some ways you could use CAA for SAML include:<br /><br /><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>Only allow access to your CRM app when the user is on the corporate network. </li><li>Only allow access to a cloud storage app if the user has an up to date operating system and an encrypted device. </li><li>Only permit IT admins to access certain tools from a remote location. </li><li>Only permit users in a specific country to access certain apps. </li></ul><br /><br /><h3 style="text-align: left;">Additional details </h3><br /><b>Builds on the CAA for G Suite infrastructure </b><br />Controlling CAA for SAML apps will use the same infrastructure and admin console interface as CAA for G Suite. That means you can use any pre-configured access levels, <a href="https://gsuiteupdates.googleblog.com/2020/02/group-policies-manage-context-aware-access.html" target="_blank">user groups</a>, and end-user messaging for CAA to SAML. Use our Help Center to find out more about <a href="https://support.google.com/a/answer/9275380" target="_blank">managing context aware access in G Suite</a>.<br /><br /><b>CAA for SAML only enforced at time of sign-in </b><br />CAA for SAML apps is only enforced at the time of sign-in. This is different from <a href="https://gsuiteupdates.googleblog.com/2019/10/context-aware-access-available.html" target="_blank">CAA for G Suite applications</a>, which offers a higher level of control. G Suite applications are built by Google and CAA controls are enabled for continuous evaluation of context (IP, device attribute, etc) during use. As SAML apps are non-Google applications using Google sign-in, we’re only able to evaluate context at the point where a user signs into these applications using Google sign-in.

This gives admins the ability to control access to SAML apps based on the user, the device, and the context they are in when they are trying to access an app.<br /><br />CAA for SAML apps will work for customers that use Google as the primary identity provider (IdP) to enable access to third party apps from <a href="https://support.google.com/a/table/9217027" target="_blank">pre-integrated SAML apps</a> or <a href="https://support.google.com/a/answer/6087519" target="_blank">custom SAML apps</a>. It’s available to G Suite Enterprise, G Suite Enterprise for Education, Cloud Identity Premium, and Drive Enterprise customers only. See our post on the Cloud Blog to <a href="https://cloud.google.com/blog/products/g-suite/6-new-controls-to-help-g-suite-customers-stay-secure" target="_blank">learn how this and other launches can help G Suite customers stay secure</a>.<br /><br /><h3 style="text-align: left;">Who’s impacted </h3>Admins only<br /><br /><h3 style="text-align: left;">Why you’d use it </h3>Using Context-Aware Access, you can create granular access control policies to apps based on attributes including the user, location, device security status, and IP address. This can improve your security posture by reducing the chances that there’s unintended access to specific apps and the data in them. Some ways you could use CAA for SAML include:<br /><br /><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>Only allow access to your CRM app when the user is on the corporate network. </li><li>Only allow access to a cloud storage app if the user has an up to date operating system and an encrypted device. </li><li>Only permit IT admins to access certain tools from a remote location. </li><li>Only permit users in a specific country to access certain apps. </li></ul><br /><br /><h3 style="text-align: left;">Additional details </h3><br /><b>Builds on the CAA for G Suite infrastructure </b><br />Controlling CAA for SAML apps will use the same infrastructure and admin console interface as CAA for G Suite. That means you can use any pre-configured access levels, <a href="https://gsuiteupdates.googleblog.com/2020/02/group-policies-manage-context-aware-access.html" target="_blank">user groups</a>, and end-user messaging for CAA to SAML. Use our Help Center to find out more about <a href="https://support.google.com/a/answer/9275380" target="_blank">managing context aware access in G Suite</a>.<br /><br /><b>CAA for SAML only enforced at time of sign-in </b><br />CAA for SAML apps is only enforced at the time of sign-in. This is different from <a href="https://gsuiteupdates.googleblog.com/2019/10/context-aware-access-available.html" target="_blank">CAA for G Suite applications</a>, which offers a higher level of control. G Suite applications are built by Google and CAA controls are enabled for continuous evaluation of context (IP, device attribute, etc) during use.

They display information in a banner at the top of the site, grabbing viewers’ attention when they land on the page. Ways that customers can use banners include:<br /><br /><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>A business administrator at a large company can add a banner to an employee resource site to highlight newly added pages and information in the larger site. </li><li>A small business owner can add a banner to alert customers of changing operating hours or business practices. </li><li>A teacher can add a banner to a class site to notify students that a new assignment has been posted. </li></ul><br />Use the Help Center to learn more about <a href="https://support.google.com/sites/answer/9826219" target="_blank">how to add an announcement banner to a site</a>.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-Tg5TU-yqz4hhYDXqSCn65T0jHLxjF1nQG0u8JWKyvdPDnGsY486d93DQqwDunO8H9Cqv-zWh2mCW0q_Ik_ndcX58M3kDb3ndZud9P81tLp_dQfzzWGpZpKk_GIAv0aofGau7F-dkO5c/s1600/Banner+3.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="396" data-original-width="772" height="328" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-Tg5TU-yqz4hhYDXqSCn65T0jHLxjF1nQG0u8JWKyvdPDnGsY486d93DQqwDunO8H9Cqv-zWh2mCW0q_Ik_ndcX58M3kDb3ndZud9P81tLp_dQfzzWGpZpKk_GIAv0aofGau7F-dkO5c/s640/Banner+3.gif" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><br /><b>Access for accounts managed with Family Link </b><br /><br />Until now, users with <a href="https://support.google.com/families/answer/7103338" target="_blank">personal Google Accounts managed with Family Link</a> have not been able to view or edit sites.

The blog post also highlighted a significant goal: to enable TLS by default for our Google products and services, and to ensure that TLS works out of the box.<br /><br />Gmail already supports TLS, so that if the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) mail connection can be secured through TLS, it will be.

Enabling TLS by default on new SMTP mail routes enhances the security posture of our customers while enabling admins to test connections before enforcing TLS on existing routes makes it easier for them to deploy best practice security policies.<br /><br />This change will not impact mail routes that were previously created.<br /><br /><h3 style="text-align: left;">Additional details</h3><div><br /></div><b>TLS enabled by default on new mail routes</b><br />With TLS enabled by default for new mail routes, all certificate validation requirements are also enabled by default. This ensures that recipient hosts have a certificate issued for the correct host that has been signed by a trusted Certificate Authority (CA). See more details about how we’re changing the requirements for trusted CAs below.<br /><br />Admins will still have the ability to customize their TLS security settings on newly created mail routes. For example, if mail is forwarded to third-party or on-premise mail servers using internal CA certificates, admins may need to disable CA certificate validation. Disabling CA certificate validation, or even disabling TLS entirely, is not recommended. We encourage admins to test their SMTP TLS configuration in the Admin console in order to validate the TLS connection to external mail servers before disabling any recommended validations. See more details about how to test TLS connections in the Admin console.<br /><br /><b>Certificate Authority distrust in Gmail</b><br />In the past, the Google Security Blog has highlighted instances where <a href="https://security.googleblog.com/2019/08/protecting-chrome-users-in-kazakhstan.html" target="_blank">Chrome would no longer trust root CA certificates used to intercept traffic on the public internet</a> and where <a href="https://security.googleblog.com/2018/03/distrust-of-symantec-pki-immediate.html" target="_blank">Chrome distrusts specific CAs</a>.<br /><br />If these scenarios occur in the future, these certificates will also be distrusted by Gmail.
