Google for Work already helps admins manage information security with tools such as encryption, sharing controls, mobile device management and two-factor authentication. However, sometimes user actions compromise the best of all of these controls; for example, a user might hit “Reply all” when meaning to send a private message with sensitive content. <br /> <br /> Starting today, if you’re a Google Apps Unlimited customer, Data Loss Prevention (DLP) for Gmail will add another layer of protection to prevent sensitive information from being revealed to those who shouldn’t have it.<br /> <br /> <h3 style="text-align: left;"> How Gmail DLP works</h3> Organizations may have a policy that the Sales department shouldn’t share customer credit card information with vendors. And to keep information safe, admins can easily set up a DLP policy by selecting “Credit Card Numbers” from a library of predefined content detectors. Gmail DLP will automatically check all outgoing emails from the Sales department and take action based on what the admin has specified: either quarantine the email for review, tell users to modify the information or block the email from being sent and notify the sender. These checks don’t just apply to email text, but also to content inside common attachment types ― such as documents, presentations and spreadsheets. And admins can also create custom rules with keywords and regular expressions.<br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYjSrJFmL6qiqV9YTw1uBnTraKTIknN8dIExOsuz7ynVUQyyNQQp1FHHZh6mekZv-4g1VuOLXGTLnXUEJv9BcA7r0Q0l057bBwF9oeHt85DaEgrGKtrGRt6AMYJLTPDzV7iu4G7e-LjBc/s1600/security+1.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="322" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYjSrJFmL6qiqV9YTw1uBnTraKTIknN8dIExOsuz7ynVUQyyNQQp1FHHZh6mekZv-4g1VuOLXGTLnXUEJv9BcA7r0Q0l057bBwF9oeHt85DaEgrGKtrGRt6AMYJLTPDzV7iu4G7e-LjBc/s640/security+1.png" width="640" /></a></div> <br /> <br /> Check out the DLP <a href="http://services.google.com/fh/files/misc/gmail_dlp_whitepaper.pdf" target="_blank">whitepaper</a> for more information including the full list of predefined content creators, and learn how to <a href="https://support.google.com/a/answer/6280516" target="_blank">get started</a>.

But as technology keeps advancing to connect us, so do the techniques of those with bad intentions. The <a href="http://breachlevelindex.com/pdf/Breach-Level-Index-Annual-Report-2014.pdf" target="_blank">number of records breached in 2014</a> was staggering; <a href="http://www.datasurer.com/8-common-reasons-of-data-breach/" target="_blank">weak usernames and passwords</a> remain the leading cause. The introduction of <a href="https://support.google.com/a/answer/175197?hl=en" target="_blank">2-Step Verification</a> added a layer of security for your Google Account, but we knew more could be done.<br /> <br /> That’s why Google, working with the <a href="https://fidoalliance.org/" target="_blank">FIDO Alliance</a> standards organization, developed the <a href="http://googleonlinesecurity.blogspot.com/2014/10/strengthening-2-step-verification-with.html" target="_blank">Security Key</a> — an actual physical key used to access your Google Account. It sends an encrypted signature rather than a code, and ensures that your login cannot be phished. And using this key saves you time — when you need to verify your Google Account on a Chrome browser, the key’s light will flash. Just tap it and the signature sends automatically. In fact, when we rolled the Security Key out to Googlers last year, they loved that it was so much faster than when they had to enter a code.<br /> <br /> <iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="360" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/LUHOs_ggvi4" width="640"></iframe><br /> <h3 style="text-align: left;"> New Google Apps controls to manage Security Keys </h3> Businesses like Yelp and Woolworths started piloting the Security Key at work and have been looking for ways to scale adoption. Cameron Roberts, Google Apps SME at Woolworths Limited told us, “We have a large workforce and it’s imperative that all of our accounts are secure. The Security Keys are a great step forward, as they are very practical and more secure.” Ryan de Temple, IT Engineer for Security at Yelp said, “As we roll Security Keys out to our users, we realized the importance of a management toolset to audit and revoke keys, as well as reports on key enrollment activity.”<br /> <br /> <b>In the coming weeks, Google Drive for Work admins will be able to easily deploy, monitor and manage the Security Key at scale with new controls in the Admin console with no additional software to install.</b> IT admins will see where and when employees last used their keys with<a href="https://support.google.com/a/answer/6000239" target="_blank"> usage tracking and reports</a>. If Security Keys are lost, admins can easily revoke access to those keys and provide backup codes so employees can still sign-in and get work done</div> <br /> Admins can <a href="http://www.amazon.com/s/?field-keywords=%22FIDO%20U2F%20Security%20Key%22" target="_blank">order Security Keys</a> from online retailers or directly from a manufacturer. Multiple models are available and prices start at $6 per key. You can have a smaller model permanently in the USB slot, so it’s available at your fingertips or carry a larger removable model on your keychain or in your wallet. We hope you also take advantage of what the Security Key can do to help protect your organization. <a href="https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/6103523" target="_blank">Learn more</a>.</div> </script> <noscript> <div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> <div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> <span class="byline-author">Posted by Eran Feigenbaum, Director of Security, Google for Work</span> <br /> <br /> It’s easier than ever to share ideas across the world.

The <a href="http://breachlevelindex.com/pdf/Breach-Level-Index-Annual-Report-2014.pdf" target="_blank">number of records breached in 2014</a> was staggering; <a href="http://www.datasurer.com/8-common-reasons-of-data-breach/" target="_blank">weak usernames and passwords</a> remain the leading cause. The introduction of <a href="https://support.google.com/a/answer/175197?hl=en" target="_blank">2-Step Verification</a> added a layer of security for your Google Account, but we knew more could be done.<br /> <br /> That’s why Google, working with the <a href="https://fidoalliance.org/" target="_blank">FIDO Alliance</a> standards organization, developed the <a href="http://googleonlinesecurity.blogspot.com/2014/10/strengthening-2-step-verification-with.html" target="_blank">Security Key</a> — an actual physical key used to access your Google Account. It sends an encrypted signature rather than a code, and ensures that your login cannot be phished. And using this key saves you time — when you need to verify your Google Account on a Chrome browser, the key’s light will flash. Just tap it and the signature sends automatically. In fact, when we rolled the Security Key out to Googlers last year, they loved that it was so much faster than when they had to enter a code.<br /> <br /> <iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="360" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/LUHOs_ggvi4" width="640"></iframe><br /> <h3 style="text-align: left;"> New Google Apps controls to manage Security Keys </h3> Businesses like Yelp and Woolworths started piloting the Security Key at work and have been looking for ways to scale adoption. Cameron Roberts, Google Apps SME at Woolworths Limited told us, “We have a large workforce and it’s imperative that all of our accounts are secure. The Security Keys are a great step forward, as they are very practical and more secure.” Ryan de Temple, IT Engineer for Security at Yelp said, “As we roll Security Keys out to our users, we realized the importance of a management toolset to audit and revoke keys, as well as reports on key enrollment activity.”<br /> <br /> <b>In the coming weeks, Google Drive for Work admins will be able to easily deploy, monitor and manage the Security Key at scale with new controls in the Admin console with no additional software to install.</b> IT admins will see where and when employees last used their keys with<a href="https://support.google.com/a/answer/6000239" target="_blank"> usage tracking and reports</a>. If Security Keys are lost, admins can easily revoke access to those keys and provide backup codes so employees can still sign-in and get work done</div> <br /> Admins can <a href="http://www.amazon.com/s/?field-keywords=%22FIDO%20U2F%20Security%20Key%22" target="_blank">order Security Keys</a> from online retailers or directly from a manufacturer. Multiple models are available and prices start at $6 per key. You can have a smaller model permanently in the USB slot, so it’s available at your fingertips or carry a larger removable model on your keychain or in your wallet. We hope you also take advantage of what the Security Key can do to help protect your organization. <a href="https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/6103523" target="_blank">Learn more</a>.</div> </noscript> </div> </div> <div class='share'> <span class='gplus-share social-wrapper' data-href='https://plus.google.com/share?url=https://cloud.googleblog.com/2015/04/the-key-for-working-smarter-faster-and-more-securely.html?hl=en'> <img alt='Share on Google+' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/branding/google_plus/2x/ic_w_post_gplus_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> <span class='twitter-custom social-wrapper' data-href='http://twitter.com/share?text=Official Google Cloud Blog:The Key for working smarter, faster and more securely&url=https://cloud.googleblog.com/2015/04/the-key-for-working-smarter-faster-and-more-securely.html?hl=en&via=gsuite'> <img alt='Share on Twitter' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_twitter_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> <span class='fb-custom social-wrapper' data-href='https://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https://cloud.googleblog.com/2015/04/the-key-for-working-smarter-faster-and-more-securely.html?hl=en'> <img alt='Share on Facebook' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_facebook_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> </div> <div class='comment-container'> <i class='comment-img material-icons'>  </i> <span class='cmt_count_iframe_holder' data-count='2' data-onclick='' data-post-url='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2015/04/the-key-for-working-smarter-faster-and-more-securely.html?hl=en' data-url='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2015/04/the-key-for-working-smarter-faster-and-more-securely.html' style='color: #4184F3;'></span> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='cmt_iframe_holder' data-href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2015/04/the-key-for-working-smarter-faster-and-more-securely.html' data-viewtype='FILTERED_POSTMOD'></div> <a href='https://plus.google.com/112374322230920073195' rel='author' style='display:none;'> Google </a> <div class='label-footer'> <span class='labels-caption'> Labels: </span> <span class='labels'> <a class='label' href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/search/label/Google%20Apps%20for%20Work?hl=en' rel='tag'> Google Apps for Work </a> , <a class='label' href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/search/label/Google%20for%20Work?hl=en' rel='tag'> Google for Work </a> , <a class='label' href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/search/label/Security?hl=en' rel='tag'> Security </a> , <a class='label' href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/search/label/Security%20Key?hl=en' rel='tag'> Security Key </a> </span> </div> </div> </div> <div class='post' data-id='8133817814892368747' itemscope='' itemtype='http://schema.org/BlogPosting'> <h2 class='title' itemprop='name'> <a href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2015/04/our-commitment-to-protecting-your-Google-Apps-information.html?hl=en' itemprop='url' title='Our commitment to protecting your Google Apps information'> Our commitment to protecting your Google Apps information </a> </h2> <div class='post-header'> <div class='published'> <span class='publishdate' itemprop='datePublished'> Thursday, April 9, 2015 </span> </div> </div> <div class='post-body'> <div class='post-content' itemprop='articleBody'> <script type='text/template'> <div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> <span class="byline-author">Posted by Marc Crandall, Head of Global Compliance, Google for Work</span> <br /> <br /> <i><b>Editor's note:</b> Our guest blogger this week is Marc Crandall, Head of Global Compliance at Google for Work.

We do not show advertisements or scan customer information for advertising in Google Apps for Work, Education, Government or Non-Profit, and we do not use data for any other purpose than to manage and deliver our services. These commitments are regularly verified by independent auditors, and this summer we published their detailed findings in our <a href="https://cert.webtrust.org/soc3_google.html" target="_blank">SOC3 security audit report</a>. We also help our customers comply with their regulatory obligations, and we renewed and extended our <a href="https://drive.google.com/viewerng/viewer?url=https://services.google.com/fh/files/blogs/btd-sec-op-2014-grey.pdf" target="_blank">ISO 27001 certification</a> and certified our Cloud Platform to the <a href="http://googlecloudplatform.blogspot.com/2014/12/google-cloud-platform-now-pci-data-security-standard-certified.html" target="_blank">PCI standard</a>. We were excited to participate in the development of the new ISO 27018 privacy standard for cloud computing, and look forward to opportunities to engage in similar efforts in the future. <br /> <br /> Next year, the bad guys will keep all of us on our toes as we expect the number of threats and their sophistication to increase. We will keep raising the bar — for example we have been working to improve passwords with the new <a href="http://officialandroid.blogspot.com/2014/10/a-sweet-lollipop-with-kevlar-wrapping.html" target="_blank">Smart Lock for Android feature</a>, and developing identification technology that makes <a href="http://googleonlinesecurity.blogspot.com/2014/12/are-you-robot-introducing-no-captcha.html" target="_blank">typing-in complex Captchas obsolete</a>. As we enter 2015, you can expect our continued investment in security and a guarantee that we will continue to find ways to make it simple for people to use our services in a secure and transparent manner.<br /> <br /> <br /></div> </script> <noscript> <div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> <span class="byline-author">Posted by Eran Feigenbaum, Director of Security, Google for Work</span> <br /> <br /> We know you want to be assured that your digital information is safe and available when you need it.

We created new security <a href="http://googleonlinesecurity.blogspot.com/2014/07/announcing-project-zero.html" target="_blank">teams</a>, our engineers discovered and helped fix <a href="http://googleonlinesecurity.blogspot.com/2014/04/google-services-updated-to-address.html" target="_blank">vulnerabilities like Heartbleed</a> and <a href="http://googleonlinesecurity.blogspot.com/2014/10/this-poodle-bites-exploiting-ssl-30.html" target="_blank">Poodle</a>, and we took a series of concrete steps that will increase the security of our customers’ information:<br /> <ul style="text-align: left;"> <li>We offered <a href="http://gmailblog.blogspot.com/2010/01/default-https-access-for-gmail.html" target="_blank">encryption as a default for Gmail</a> since 2010, but this year we made sure every single email you send or receive is also <a href="http://gmailblog.blogspot.com/2014/03/staying-at-forefront-of-email-security.html" target="_blank">encrypted while moving internally</a> between our data centers.</li> <li>We released <a href="https://code.google.com/p/end-to-end/" target="_blank">End-to-End</a>, a Chrome extension that encrypts information between your browser and the intended recipient and yesterday, <a href="http://googleonlinesecurity.blogspot.com/2014/12/an-update-to-end-to-end.html" target="_blank">we made it available to the community</a>.</li> <li>We ensured that all <a href="http://googleforwork.blogspot.com/2014/06/unlimit-your-business-with-google-drive.html" target="_blank">files uploaded to Google Drive are encrypted</a> at rest on Google servers — in addition to in transit, as they are shared on the web.</li> <li>We launched a <a href="http://googleonlinesecurity.blogspot.com/2014/10/strengthening-2-step-verification-with.html" target="_blank">physical security key</a> that provides second-factor authentication through your computer’s USB port, and we are working on admin tools to let you deploy this at scale in your organization.</li> <li>We gave business users controls to share responsibility with IT, providing a wizard to <a href="http://googleforwork.blogspot.com/2014/11/new-security-tools-to-help-improve.html" target="_blank">secure your account and a new dashboard to monitor device activity</a>.</li> <li>We made it easier to secure devices in the workplace with the new <a href="http://officialandroid.blogspot.com/2014/10/a-sweet-lollipop-with-kevlar-wrapping.html" target="_blank">security features in Android 5.0 Lollipop</a>.</li> <li>We rebuilt our <a href="http://googleforwork.blogspot.com/2014/09/increasing-security-and-productivity.html" target="_blank">device management</a> solution to support iOS 7, 8 and the new iPhone 6 and 6 Plus.</li> </ul> In addition to these announcements, we offer <a href="https://www.google.com/intx/en/work/apps/terms/dpa_terms.html" target="_blank">strong contractual commitments</a> to protect our customers’ information. We do not show advertisements or scan customer information for advertising in Google Apps for Work, Education, Government or Non-Profit, and we do not use data for any other purpose than to manage and deliver our services. These commitments are regularly verified by independent auditors, and this summer we published their detailed findings in our <a href="https://cert.webtrust.org/soc3_google.html" target="_blank">SOC3 security audit report</a>. We also help our customers comply with their regulatory obligations, and we renewed and extended our <a href="https://drive.google.com/viewerng/viewer?url=https://services.google.com/fh/files/blogs/btd-sec-op-2014-grey.pdf" target="_blank">ISO 27001 certification</a> and certified our Cloud Platform to the <a href="http://googlecloudplatform.blogspot.com/2014/12/google-cloud-platform-now-pci-data-security-standard-certified.html" target="_blank">PCI standard</a>. We were excited to participate in the development of the new ISO 27018 privacy standard for cloud computing, and look forward to opportunities to engage in similar efforts in the future. <br /> <br /> Next year, the bad guys will keep all of us on our toes as we expect the number of threats and their sophistication to increase. We will keep raising the bar — for example we have been working to improve passwords with the new <a href="http://officialandroid.blogspot.com/2014/10/a-sweet-lollipop-with-kevlar-wrapping.html" target="_blank">Smart Lock for Android feature</a>, and developing identification technology that makes <a href="http://googleonlinesecurity.blogspot.com/2014/12/are-you-robot-introducing-no-captcha.html" target="_blank">typing-in complex Captchas obsolete</a>. As we enter 2015, you can expect our continued investment in security and a guarantee that we will continue to find ways to make it simple for people to use our services in a secure and transparent manner.<br /> <br /> <br /></div> </noscript> </div> </div> <div class='share'> <span class='gplus-share social-wrapper' data-href='https://plus.google.com/share?url=https://cloud.googleblog.com/2014/12/data-security-in-2014-make-it-more.html?hl=en'> <img alt='Share on Google+' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/branding/google_plus/2x/ic_w_post_gplus_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> <span class='twitter-custom social-wrapper' data-href='http://twitter.com/share?text=Official Google Cloud Blog: Data security in 2014: Make it more difficult for others to attack and easier for you to protect&url=https://cloud.googleblog.com/2014/12/data-security-in-2014-make-it-more.html?hl=en&via=gsuite'> <img alt='Share on Twitter' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_twitter_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> <span class='fb-custom social-wrapper' data-href='https://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https://cloud.googleblog.com/2014/12/data-security-in-2014-make-it-more.html?hl=en'> <img alt='Share on Facebook' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_facebook_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> </div> <div class='comment-container'> <i class='comment-img material-icons'>  </i> <span class='cmt_count_iframe_holder' data-count='16' data-onclick='' data-post-url='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2014/12/data-security-in-2014-make-it-more.html?hl=en' data-url='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2014/12/data-security-in-2014-make-it-more.html' style='color: #4184F3;'></span> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='cmt_iframe_holder' data-href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2014/12/data-security-in-2014-make-it-more.html' data-viewtype='FILTERED_POSTMOD'></div> <a href='https://plus.google.com/112374322230920073195' rel='author' style='display:none;'> Google </a> <div class='label-footer'> <span class='labels-caption'> Labels: </span> <span class='labels'> <a class='label' href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/search/label/Security?hl=en' rel='tag'> Security </a> </span> </div> </div> </div> <div class='post' data-id='3334097086906205134' itemscope='' itemtype='http://schema.org/BlogPosting'> <h2 class='title' itemprop='name'> <a href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2014/11/new-security-tools-to-help-improve.html?hl=en' itemprop='url' title=' New security tools to help improve online security '> New security tools to help improve online security </a> </h2> <div class='post-header'> <div class='published'> <span class='publishdate' itemprop='datePublished'> Monday, November 24, 2014 </span> </div> </div> <div class='post-body'> <div class='post-content' itemprop='articleBody'> <script type='text/template'> <div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> <span class="byline-author">Posted by Eran Feigenbaum, Director of Security Google for Work</span> <br /> <br /> As an IT manager, we realize you spend a lot of time managing devices, applications and security settings for everyone at your organization.

And anyone who’s responsible for that technology — or even anyone who just follows the news — knows that 2013 was a big year for internet security. Of course, security has been a top priority for Google for over a decade. Millions of businesses trust Google to keep their data safe every day -- a responsibility we take very seriously. We focus on protecting our customers’ data from all unauthorized access, whether from common phishing, sophisticated hacking, or state-sponsored intrusions. <br /><br />Google employs hundreds of full-time world-class security engineers. We were the first to offer important security tools, like free <a href="https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/180744?hl=en&topic=1056283&rd=1" target="_blank">two-step verification</a>, <a href="https://support.google.com/a/answer/100181?hl=en" target="_blank">encrypted connections</a> between your browser and our servers, and a handful of other security innovations. As a company, Google uses the same products and services that we offer to our customers. We run on the same infrastructure, in the same data centers.<br /><br />Before businesses slow down for the holidays, we wanted to highlight a few of the many investments we’ve made and features we’ve launched in 2013 to help keep our customers — and everyone on the web — safe.

And to convey our commitment to security and thank researchers for their important work, this year we <a href="http://googleonlinesecurity.blogspot.com/2013/08/security-rewards-at-google-two.html" target="_blank">increased</a> the maximum award from $1000 to $5000.</li><li><b>Easier recovery for hacked websites</b>: As a site owner, discovering your site is hacked with <a href="https://support.google.com/websearch/answer/190597" target="_blank">spam</a> or <a href="https://support.google.com/websearch/answer/45449" target="_blank">malware</a> is stressful, and trying to clean it up under a time constraint can be very challenging. We’ve been working to make recovery even easier and streamline the cleaning process — <a href="http://googlewebmastercentral.blogspot.ie/2009/11/new-software-version-notifications-for.html" target="_blank">we notify webmasters</a> when the software they’re running on their site is out of date, and we’ve set up a <a href="//www.google.com/webmasters/hacked/" target="_blank">dedicated help portal</a> for hacked sites with detailed articles and videos explaining each step of the process to recovery. This year, we released <a href="http://googlewebmastercentral.blogspot.com/2013/10/easier-recovery-for-hacked-sites.html" target="_blank">additional security tools</a> so webmasters can find information about security issues on their site in one place and pinpoint problems faster with detailed code snippets.</li></ul><br />Whether it’s creating easy-to-use tools to help organizations manage their information or keeping customer data safe from prying eyes, we’re constantly investing to ensure that Google earns and keeps your trust. Here’s to a happy, healthy, and (most of all) safe 2014. </div> </noscript> </div> </div> <div class='share'> <span class='gplus-share social-wrapper' data-href='https://plus.google.com/share?url=https://cloud.googleblog.com/2013/12/keeping-you-safe-in-2013.html?hl=en'> <img alt='Share on Google+' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/branding/google_plus/2x/ic_w_post_gplus_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> <span class='twitter-custom social-wrapper' data-href='http://twitter.com/share?text=Official Google Cloud Blog:Keeping you safe in 2013&url=https://cloud.googleblog.com/2013/12/keeping-you-safe-in-2013.html?hl=en&via=gsuite'> <img alt='Share on Twitter' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_twitter_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> <span class='fb-custom social-wrapper' data-href='https://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https://cloud.googleblog.com/2013/12/keeping-you-safe-in-2013.html?hl=en'> <img alt='Share on Facebook' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_facebook_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> </div> <div class='comment-container'> <i class='comment-img material-icons'>  </i> <span class='cmt_count_iframe_holder' data-count='9' data-onclick='' data-post-url='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2013/12/keeping-you-safe-in-2013.html?hl=en' data-url='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2013/12/keeping-you-safe-in-2013.html' style='color: #4184F3;'></span> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='cmt_iframe_holder' data-href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2013/12/keeping-you-safe-in-2013.html' data-viewtype='FILTERED_POSTMOD'></div> <a href='https://plus.google.com/112374322230920073195' rel='author' style='display:none;'> Google </a> <div class='label-footer'> <span class='labels-caption'> Labels: </span> <span class='labels'> <a class='label' href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/search/label/Google%20Apps?hl=en' rel='tag'> Google Apps </a> , <a class='label' href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/search/label/Security?hl=en' rel='tag'> Security </a> , <a class='label' href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/search/label/Trust?hl=en' rel='tag'> Trust </a> </span> </div> </div> </div> <div class='post' data-id='6391176099778458353' itemscope='' itemtype='http://schema.org/BlogPosting'> <h2 class='title' itemprop='name'> <a href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2013/06/more-byod-management-features-for.html?hl=en' itemprop='url' title='More BYOD management features for Android devices'> More BYOD management features for Android devices </a> </h2> <div class='post-header'> <div class='published'> <span class='publishdate' itemprop='datePublished'> Thursday, June 27, 2013 </span> </div> </div> <div class='post-body'> <div class='post-content' itemprop='articleBody'> <script type='text/template'> <div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><span class="byline-author">Posted by Heman Khanna, Software Engineer, Google Apps for Business</span><br /><br />More than ever, people are bringing their own mobile phones and tablets to work.

Vault offers true manage-in-place capabilities by applying retention policies directly to the Google Apps data, without the need to move, export, or create a copy of data in a separate location. <br><br>Google Apps Vault already archives, searches and manages messages in all languages that Google Apps supports (50+). Now the Google Apps Vault user interface is available in 28 languages, including double-byte languages like Japanese, Chinese and Arabic. This new, global Vault interface enables customers worldwide to more easily access and manage their data, further reducing the costs and risks that businesses today face. <blockquote>"Google Apps Vault offers compelling capabilities and value for businesses around the world in preparing for litigation, investigation, and managing day-to-day business. Vault integrates seamlessly across the evolving Google platform while integrating with business and industries of all sizes. This is a key component in our forward thinking strategy to drive down costs and provide enhanced client service." <br><br>- Eric Hunter - Director of Knowledge, Innovation & Technology Strategies at <a href="http://www.bradfordbarthel.com/">Bradford & Barthel, LLP</a></blockquote><a href="//www.google.com/apps/vault#utm_campaign=vault&utm_source=en-na-us-entblog-28Lang_06262012&utm_medium=blog">Google Apps Vault</a> is available for new and recent Google Apps for Business and Education customers.

This is one more reason you can feel confident that when you're using our products, you're making an <a href="//www.google.com/green/the-big-picture.html">environmentally responsible choice</a>.<br /><br />Our data centers in the following U.S. locations have received this dual certification. We plan to pursue certification in our European data centers as well. <br /><ul><br /><li>The Dalles, Ore.</li><br /><li>Council Bluffs, Iowa</li><br /><li>Mayes County, Okla.</li><br /><li>Lenoir, N.C.</li><br /><li>Monck’s Corner, S.C.</li><br /><li>Douglas County, Ga.</li><br /></ul> </noscript> </div> </div> <div class='share'> <span class='gplus-share social-wrapper' data-href='https://plus.google.com/share?url=https://cloud.googleblog.com/2012/01/keeping-our-environmental-management.html?hl=en'> <img alt='Share on Google+' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/branding/google_plus/2x/ic_w_post_gplus_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> <span class='twitter-custom social-wrapper' data-href='http://twitter.com/share?text=Official Google Cloud Blog:Keeping our environmental management and workplace safety standards high&url=https://cloud.googleblog.com/2012/01/keeping-our-environmental-management.html?hl=en&via=gsuite'> <img alt='Share on Twitter' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_twitter_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> <span class='fb-custom social-wrapper' data-href='https://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https://cloud.googleblog.com/2012/01/keeping-our-environmental-management.html?hl=en'> <img alt='Share on Facebook' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_facebook_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> </div> <div class='comment-container'> <i class='comment-img material-icons'>  </i> <span class='cmt_count_iframe_holder' data-count='4' data-onclick='' data-post-url='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2012/01/keeping-our-environmental-management.html?hl=en' data-url='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2012/01/keeping-our-environmental-management.html' style='color: #4184F3;'></span> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='cmt_iframe_holder' data-href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2012/01/keeping-our-environmental-management.html' data-viewtype='FILTERED_POSTMOD'></div> <a href='https://plus.google.com/112374322230920073195' rel='author' style='display:none;'> Google </a> <div class='label-footer'> <span class='labels-caption'> Labels: </span> <span class='labels'> <a class='label' href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/search/label/Google%20Green?hl=en' rel='tag'> Google Green </a> , <a class='label' href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/search/label/Security?hl=en' rel='tag'> Security </a> </span> </div> </div> </div> <div class='post' data-id='8649057664339223496' itemscope='' itemtype='http://schema.org/BlogPosting'> <h2 class='title' itemprop='name'> <a href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2012/01/adding-business-class-management.html?hl=en' itemprop='url' title='Adding business class management features to Gmail'> Adding business class management features to Gmail </a> </h2> <div class='post-header'> <div class='published'> <span class='publishdate' itemprop='datePublished'> Tuesday, January 17, 2012 </span> </div> </div> <div class='post-body'> <div class='post-content' itemprop='articleBody'> <script type='text/template'> <br /><div><b id="internal-source-marker_0.12489430839195848"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 13px; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Posted by Adam Dawes, Gmail Product Manager</span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 13px; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"></span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 13px; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Last year, we started </span><a href="http://googleenterprise.blogspot.com/2011/01/set-limits-on-email-use-within-your.html"><span style="color: #000099; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13px; font-weight: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">integrating</span></a><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 13px; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> Postini’s business-class email security and management capabilities into Gmail and today we’re excited to be rolling out the latest round of integrated features. </span><a href="//www.google.com/apps/intl/en/business/index.html#utm_campaign=gogoogle&utm_source=en-entblog-na-us_email_admin_011712&utm_medium=blog"><span style="color: #000099; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13px; font-weight: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Google Apps</span></a><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 13px; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> administrators can now take advantage of improved email compliance footers, approved/blocked sender lists and file attachment policies.
