Your Google Workspace environment has security gaps you probably don't know about yet. I'm a Google Workspace specialist with nearly a decade of experience across SMB, enterprise, and FedRAMP-regulated environments. I help business owners and IT leads fix the things that keep them up at night, excessive super admin access, missing MFA, AI tools connected to the wrong accounts, backdoor access from former employees, and domain sprawl. My engagements are milestone-based and fixed-price. You approve each phase before I proceed. No surprises, no runaway hours. What I do: GWS security audits — super admin reduction, OAuth app enumeration, SPF/DKIM/DMARC Identity hardening — YubiKey MFA, dedicated admin accounts, custom roles OU architecture and Shared Drive governance SAML SSO + JIT provisioning (replacing broken SCIM setups) AI governance — safely deploying Gemini and Claude without exposing super admin scope Onboarding/offboarding automation via Google Chat chatbot (no super admin required) Apple Business Manager + MDM for device fleets Advanced GAM for bulk operations and auditing Who I work with: Fast-growing SMBs that scaled quickly and now realize their GWS environment hasn't kept pace with the business. Companies about to deploy AI tools who want guardrails in place first. Anyone who's had a security incident, or wants to avoid one. My background: SADA Systems, Meta (Senior GWS SME), Salesforce (FedRAMP High), and several Google Cloud partners. I know what enterprise-grade GWS administration looks like, and I bring that to SMB engagements at a fraction of the cost. All work performed remotely. Off-hours scheduling available to minimize disruption to your team. Ready to start? Send me a message or book a 30-minute consultation call.
