owners. The answer is the security that Google provides for its users. In this modern age full of advanced technology with constant news of information leaking, Google stays ahead of the curve due to the highly secure, reliable, and compliant environment that it is able to offer. This blog aims to introduce the ten important security benefits that G Suite, a package of cloud-based services for businesses, provides.
1. Password Protection G Suite provides 2-step verification, a tool that greatly reduced the risk of unauthorized access by asking users for additional proof of identity when signing in. This offers another layer of security for user login by requiring a physical key. They key sends an encrypted signature and works only with the sites that it’s supposed to, which in turn helps to guard against phishing. Additionally, G Suite administrators can easily deploy, monitor, and manage the security keys from within the administrator console without needing to download any software. 2. Spam Detection G Suite also provides spam detection, adding another layer of security for G Suite users. Gmail achieved 99.9% accuracy in spam detection and block phishing messages due to the advances in machine learning. Less than 0.1% of email in the average Gmail inbox is spam. 3. Malware Detection Another similar function to spam detection is malware detection. To prevent malware, Google automatically scans every attachment for viruses prior to a user downloading it. In fact, even Gmail checks for viruses in attachments queued for dispatch, which protects Gmail users and the spread of viruses.
