Client-side encryption for Gmail available in beta
What’s changing
Google is expanding customer access to client-side encryption in Gmail on the web. Customers of Google Workspace Enterprise Plus, Education Plus and Education Standard are eligible for beta trial registration until January 20, 2023.
Using client-side encryption in Gmail ensures sensitive data in the email body and attachments are indecipherable to Google servers. Customers retain control over encryption keys and the identity service to access those keys.
Who’s impacted
Admins and end users
Why it’s important
Google Workspace already uses the latest cryptographic standards to encrypt all data at rest and in transit between our facilities. Client-side encryption helps strengthen the confidentiality of your data while helping to address a broad range of data sovereignty and compliance needs.
Client-side encryption is already available for Google Drive, Google Docs, Sheet and Slide, Google Meet and Calendar (beta).
Getting started
- Admins
- Eligible Workspace customers can apply for the beta after completing a few steps to prepare your account.
- This feature will be OFF by default and can be enabled at the domain, OU, and Group levels (Admin console > Security > Access and data control > Client-side encryption). Visit the Help Center to learn more about client side encryption.
- End users: To add client-side encryption to any message, click the lock icon and select additional encryption, and compose your message and add attachments as normal. Visit the Help Center to learn more about using Client-side encryption for Gmail.
