“At Google, we spend much of our time working inside a browser. We search, chat, email and collaborate in a
browser. And like all of you, in our spare time, we shop,
bank, read news and keep in touch with friends - all using a browser. People are spending an increasing amount of
time online, and they're doing things never imagined when the web first appeared about 15 years ago.”

Google Chrome Leads to Google Apps…
• The real danger to the organization does not come from the
browser itself.
• The danger comes from what the browser enables for the
organization:

“Throw away your email server and fire your IT guy”
• Numerous reductions in cost for organizations
• Reduction in infrastructure costs
• No new servers
• No new storage requirements
• Reduction in the update cycle for machines
• Reduction in patching costs

“Throw away your email server and fire your IT guy”
• For all the advantages, there is still one major disadvantage…
The minute that you put your data in the hands of your provider, you have just lost
control and security of that data!

“Throw away your email server and fire your IT guy”
• Despite the fact that Google no doubt takes the security of
Google Apps very seriously, the truth of the matter is:
• There is no longer visibility into who is viewing the data
• There is no tracking of attacks
• There is no access control tracking or viewing of SIM data
• Even more scary is that the end users – those with no security
training – are the ones creating their own sites and moving data
outside the enterprise.

Strategic Recommendations for CSOs
• Recognize both the risks AND benefits of new devices and
applications.
• There might be compelling reasons to implement Google Apps within your organization.
• Know that doing so would instantly limit your visibility into the security around the data.
• What legal liability do you have?

Strategic Recommendations for CSOs
• Be vigilant
• Look for new devices to appear on the network.
• Look for data leaving the enterprise to sites like Google.

21
Strategic Recommendations for CSOs
• Educate your management and your users
• If your C-suite are likely early adopters, make sure they are aware of and accept the risks associated with bringing those devices into the enterprise.
• Make sure that your policies specifically cover the transfer of data outside the enterprise.
• Make sure your users understand the implications of bringing newdevices onsite and setting up their own sites or apps.
