DPIA Google Workspace (G Suite Enterprise – juli 2020) – update februari 2021

Google’s G Suite Enterprise contains communication, productivity, collaboration and security tools. In December 2020, after completion of this report, Google has renamed these services in Google Workspace. Google provides these software services as a cloud service. Users can access the different tools through a browser or through installed apps on mobile phones and devices. This report examines the data protection risks of the use of G Suite Enterprise (for large organisations and companies) via the Chrome browser on the following 3 platforms: ChromeOS (on a Chromebook), mac OS and Windows 10. Additionally, the risks are assessed of the use of installed iOS and Android G Suite apps. Though most government organisations use Microsoft Office 365, SLM Microsoft Rijk (the Dutch government’s department managing strategic vendor relations with Microsoft) wishes to assess via this DPIA what the risks are if government organisations would deploy G Suite Enterprise instead of Microsoft Office 365.
