FAQ

All your important questions, answered

Why is now the best time to invest in Metomic for Google Drive?

With companies around the world using Google Drive to store documents, images, and more, this handy SaaS application can be a hub for some of the most important assets in your business.

The rise of remote work has meant apps such as Google Drive have become essential for teams who are working across devices, and countries. However, they can also quickly become repositories for plenty of sensitive data if employees aren’t aware of your security policies.

Metomic’s data security software helps you detect and protect sensitive data stored in Google Drive, without having an impact on employee productivity.

How can I keep data secure in Google Drive?

Minimising the amount of sensitive data you store in Google Drive can be a great first step in keeping your data secure. By understanding where your data is stored, you can start mapping your high-risk assets and securing them to prevent them being compromised. A data security tool helps you do this automatically, so you’re not wasting time manually seeking risks.

You should also keep your employees aware of your security policies so they can play a part in protecting sensitive data too. Metomic helps you do this with real-time employee notifications to alert your team when they’re over-exposing sensitive information.

Why do I need data security for Google Drive?

There are serious risks associated with storing sensitive data in Google Drive. For instance, if that data was to be seen by someone outside your organisation, there could be huge legal and financial repercussions for the business.

Not only that, but your brand reputation could take a hit, and you may be in breach of regulations such as GDPR, PCI DSS and HIPAA.

Why choose Metomic?
  1. Metomic automatically revokes internal sharing, domain sharing, and public sharing, for files that contain sensitive data, allowing you to protect your most valuable assets
  2. Rather than overwhelming your security team with notifications, we allow you to configure your notifications, and send them directly to your employees to action themselves
  3. Metomic allows you to take action on your Google Drive violations directly from Slack, so you can remediate risks quickly and easily
