Google Workspace Security Assessment
Identify the gaps in your Google Workspace environment before an attacker does, with an expert-led assessment from CloudTech24, a trusted UK Google Workspace partner.
An overview
Our Google Workspace Security Assessment uncovers the risks, misconfigurations and security gaps that leave your business exposed. Google Workspace is one of the most widely used business platforms in the world, which makes it a key target for attackers, and default or partly configured tenants are often far more exposed than organisations realise.
We assess your environment against recognised industry security baselines and Google best practice, drawing on experience gained across many tenants. The review is led by our security specialists and translated into plain English, so you understand not just what is wrong, but what it means for your business and what to do about it.
The assessment is low impact and does not disrupt your users. You receive a clear, board-ready report and a prioritised roadmap that tells you what to fix first, and why.
Why you need a Google Workspace security assessment
Most cloud compromises do not begin with a sophisticated attack. They begin with a gap: a sign-in that sidesteps multi-factor authentication (MFA), an over-permissive connected application, a mailbox quietly forwarding to an external user, or a file shared more widely than anyone intended.
These gaps are common, easy to miss, and rarely visible day to day. Any of them can lead to account takeover, invoice fraud, or data leaving the business. The cost of an incident is significant both financially and to your reputation, and organisations can also face penalties where sensitive data is not adequately protected.
Our assessment gives you an independent, expert view of where you stand and a clear plan to close the gaps that matter most, before someone else finds them.
How it works
The assessment is a fixed-time engagement carried out remotely. It is low impact and does not change your live environment.
After a short kick-off call to understand your setup, our team carry out the assessment and produce your report and leadership summary, which are quality assured by a second consultant. We then walk you through the findings on a call and hand over the full report, so you leave with both the detail and a clear set of next steps.
Google Workspace hardening
Many businesses run on default or partly configured settings, which leaves gaps that attackers exploit, particularly around identity, email security and data protection.
As part of the assessment, we benchmark your environment against industry best practice and the security baselines we have refined across many tenants. We then give you a prioritised hardening roadmap which sets the next steps out for you to implement or to work with us to implement and monitor in and ongoing service.

What is a Google Workspace security assessment?
It is an expert review of your Google Workspace security posture against recognised industry baselines and Google best practice. It gives you a clear picture of where you stand and a prioritised plan to improve, covering the areas attackers target most.
How long does it take?
It is a short, fixed engagement. The assessment includes a kick-off call, the assessment itself, a quality-assured report, a call to walk you through the findings, and the handover of your full report and leadership summary.
Will the assessment interrupt our users or business operations?
No. The Google Workspace security assessment is low impact. We review your security posture rather than changing settings, so there is no disruption to your users.
What do we receive following the assessment?
A board-ready report, a leadership summary, a check for exposed company credentials and email spoofing risk, and a prioritised remediation roadmap. The report is quality assured before it reaches you.
Is this assessment the same as a penetration test?
No. A Google Workspace security assessment is a detailed review of how your environment is configured, which is lower risk while still giving a good overview. If you need offensive testing, ask us about our penetration testing service.
What happens after the security assessment?
You receive a report with recommendations detailed in priority order. Many clients adopt our managed services to ensure that the remediations are put in place and ongoing monitoring is implemented.
Can you help us implement the recommendations from the report?
Absolutely. We provide security consultancy and remediation support after the assessment, including hardening and implementation, resulting in measurable security improvement.

Long term customer of Cloudtech24 – today was particularly useful as there is no one as nerdy as me in our company, and it was good just to bounce the problem off the team. I eventually found the answer myself – sort of ‘once you have excluded everything that should be causing it, you’re left with what it couldn’t be’. And it was!
Helpful & cheerful as always thank you Yassi
