Organisations that are working safer with Gmail and Workspace

Snap logo

Snap chose Gmail and Workspace to gain a stronger security posture. In fact, since adopting FIDO2 Security Keys and moving to shorter login sessions across our company, weve had zero account takeovers for more than two years. We are also excited to be an early adopter of passkeys to provide more delightful and flexible experiences to our employees.

Keeping our citizens data safe is paramount to our mission, and we chose Gmail primarily because of its security. After replacing a legacy email provider with Gmail, our users noticed a meaningful decrease in spam, phishing, and malware, helping us reduce our cyber security risks. We also freed up our IT teams valuable time and budget to invest in other areas since we no longer need a separate email security solution.

Client-side encryption is a cornerstone of our modern information governance strategy.
