If you’re using Google Workspace and wondering how to keep your sensitive information—like emails, documents, and internal systems—safe, you’re not alone. Whether you’re running a startup in Lahore or managing an established firm in Karachi, data protection is no longer optional.
At gworkspacepartner.pk, powered by our sister concern creativeON (a certified Google Partner and Reseller in Pakistan), we don’t just provide licenses—we help you safeguard your digital ecosystem. In this guide, we’ll walk you through simple yet powerful ways to boost your Google Workspace security and ensure your business runs without digital threats.
Google Workspace brings efficiency, collaboration, and mobility to your team—but it also holds your most critical business data. While Google handles top-tier infrastructure security, the day-to-day responsibility of protecting your company data lies with you, the admin or business owner.
Unfortunately, many businesses in Pakistan still underestimate how easily a security breach can happen—from a weak password to an accidental file share. But here’s the good part: Google Workspace offers all the tools you need to prevent such risks, if you use them wisely.
Let’s look at practical ways to secure your setup—step by step.

2.Navigate to: Security → Authentication → 2-step verification
3.Enforce it for all users
Tip: Use Google Authenticator or another trusted app to generate secure login codes.
By default, users may be able to share files outside your organization, which increases risk. You can tighten these settings easily.
