How to protect data from phishing

This is not an April Fools' Day, mind you! Don't take the bait either: protect your business data from phishing and accidental loss with Google Workspace (formerly known as G Suite).

We especially want to remind you of this today, because it is often because of carelessness that sensitive information is put at risk, causing irreparable damage.

For many, working remotely has become the new normal: the alarm clock rings and still in your slippers between coffee and brioche you are already at your desk at home to start your day.

Keeping people connected has become an even greater challenge, especially not to register inflections in productivity. On the contrary, this historical moment can and should stimulate a new way of working, a cultural transformation before a digital one.

It is no longer important where you work, but how; to do so, however, you need the right tools to create, communicate, and collaborate securely and in real time, from any device and from anywhere.

Gmail protects your data from phishing. Google you can trust!

Here are some benefits for the security of your data: Google protects your information and that of your customers not only from phishing.

1. Spam Detection. Machine Learning helped Gmail achieve 99.9% accuracy in SPAM detection, thus blocking sneaky SPAM and phishing messages. Less than 0.1 percent of email in the average Gmail inbox is SPAM.
2. Malware Detection. To prevent malware, Google repeatedly and automatically scans attachments for viruses to prevent a user from downloading them. Gmail also checks files that are attached before they are sent so that malicious files are not unknowingly shared. This helps protect everyone who uses Gmail and prevents the spread of viruses. Attachments in certain formats, such as . ADE, . ADP, . BAT, . CHM, . CMD, . COM, . CPL, . EXE, . HTA, . INS, . ISP, . JAR, . JS, . JSE, . LIB, . LNK, . MDE, . MSC, . MSI, . MSP, . MST, . NSH, . PIF, . SCR, . SCT, . SHB, . SYS, . VB, . VBE, . VBS, . VXD, . WSC, . WSF, and . WSH are automatically blocked, even when if they are included as part of a compressed file.
3. Phishing Prevention. Google Workspace uses Machine Learning to protect users from phishing attacks. Google's learning models compare sites that are classified as phishing and those with suspicious URLs. Whenever new dangerous sites are detected they are automatically entered into the protection engines. This all happens much faster than manual management. Google Workspace allows administrators to adopt security keys, making it impossible for compromised credentials to be used in phishing attacks.
4. Defending your brand from phishing. To prevent misuse of your brand in phishing attacks, Google Workspace follows the DMARC standard, which allows domain owners to decide how Gmail and other email providers can handle unauthenticated email from your domain. By defining a policy, you can help protect your users and your organization's reputation.

On Google you can count on: security for your data

No Advertising
Google does not collect, analyze, or use user data for advertising purposes (you will not display ads in Google Workspace). Google uses your data to provide Google Workspace services and support, such as SPAM filtering, virus detection, spell checking, the ability to search for emails and files within a single account, and more.

You own your data
The data your company enters into Google Workspace services does not belong to Google, remains yours, and is not sold to third parties.

Access Transparency
Access Transparency supports Google's commitment to transparency, with granular controls of actions taken by Google staff and the reason for each access, including reference to specific support tickets.

Your Apps are always accessible
Google guarantees the operation of Google Workspace with a 99.9% SLA. It has no downtime windows or scheduled maintenance. Unlike most providers, applications are always available, even when Google is upgrading services or maintaining its systems.
