GOOGLE WORKSPACE FOR EDUCATION AUDIT
Configure Your Google Admin Console for Reliability, Productivity and Cybersecurity
Avoid operational, access, data, and security challenges in your domain by staying on top of Google for Education changes and industry best practices with a Google Workspace for Education Audit.
Assess the Effectiveness of Your Existing Settings
With over 1,000 Google Admin console settings that are often mis-configured and mis-managed, it can be difficult for your IT admins to stay on top of them and make necessary adjustments. A Google Workspace for Education Audit is an in-depth evaluation of your existing core services settings and third-party tools against the latest industry best practices and Google for Education updates. It is designed to equip you with an actionable report of recommendations and resources that will help you optimize your domain for the success of your administrators, teachers, and students.
"The audit goes in depth. It helped us discover the security issues we didn’t know were going on, and were able to close a bunch of holes."
Director of Technical Education Exeter Unified School District, CA
