What is Google Workspace?

Google Workspace (formerly G Suite) is Google’s complete business toolkit:

  • Gmail for professional email

  • Google Drive for secure file storage

  • Google Meet for video meetings

  • Docs, Sheets, Calendar and more for everyday collaboration

It’s built for teams, whether in one office or spread across cities in Pakistan — with everything synced securely in the cloud.

Why Password Changes Matter

Passwords are the keys to your digital office. Updating them regularly keeps your data safe. Here’s why it matters:

  • Security First: Strong, updated passwords reduce the risk of hacking.

  • Compliance: Many businesses must follow password security standards.

  • Peace of Mind: Secure accounts let you focus on growth instead of risks.

Who Can Change Passwords in Google Workspace?

  • Admins can reset passwords for any user in the organization.

  • Users can change their own passwords anytime.

  • Recovery Options: Encourage users to set a backup email and phone number for self-service recovery.
