Why Schools Should Consider a Domain Audit
1. Enhance Security & Protect Student Data
Schools manage vast amounts of sensitive student and faculty data. Without proper oversight, security loopholes can leave institutions vulnerable to cyber threats. The Domain Audit helps identify and address these vulnerabilities before they become critical issues.
2. Optimize Domain Performance & Efficiency
A cluttered domain structure can lead to inefficiencies in managing users, devices, and policies. Our audit ensures your school’s Google environment is organized and streamlined for maximum efficiency.
3. Ensure Compliance with Educational Policies
With increasing regulations around student data privacy, ensuring compliance with educational policies is more important than ever. The audit helps schools align their Google domain settings with best practices and legal requirements.
4. Reduce Unnecessary Costs & Risks
Unused or unnecessary third-party apps can introduce security risks and inflate costs. Our review identifies which apps are essential and which should be removed to keep your system secure and cost-effective.
5. Receive Expert Guidance & Actionable Recommendations
Every audit includes a detailed report documenting current settings and recommendations for improvements. Schools also get a 90-minute consultation with a certified Google Workspace admin to review findings and create an action plan.
