Docklands, Australia - 25 September 2025 - Sentry Cyber, a leading provider of cybersecurity solutions across Australia and New Zealand, today announced the expansion and formal launch of its enhanced suite of Google Workspace security audits, Google Workspace compliance support, and tailored cybersecurity services, with specialist capabilities as a Google Workspace security consultant. Organisations seeking to safeguard their data, prevent breaches, and maintain regulatory compliance now have access to deeper visibility, stronger defences, and expert guidance from Sentry Cyber.
Growing Cyber Risks and the Need for Compliance
As cloud tools become central to business operations, Google Workspace has emerged as a core platform for communication, file storage, collaboration, and operations. However, the default configurations often leave organisations exposed to risks including phishing attacks, data loss, misconfigured access controls, and unregulated use of third-party apps and extensions. Compliance regimes—such as Australia’s Privacy Act and Australian Privacy Principles (APPs), ISO 27001, and industry-specific standards—are increasingly demanding that organisations demonstrate more rigorous security and audit controls.
Sentry Cyber has long recognised these trends. With more than 18 years of experience in cybersecurity, maturing with the cloud era, the company now formalises its offer as a Google Workspace security consultant to help organisations of all sizes meet both technical and regulatory requirements.
What Sentry Cyber Offers: Deep Audits, Continuous Hardening, Compliance Support
1. Google Workspace Security Audits
Sentry Cyber’s audits use a broad 150+ security control framework, covering access management, app/extension visibility, threat protection, encryption, device management, and more. These audits are designed to reveal blind spots—especially in organisations unaware of many of the third-party apps or extensions in use—and deliver a clear, actionable roadmap to strengthen Workspace environments. Their findings are aligned with recognised GRC (Governance, Risk, Compliance) frameworks like ISO 27001, Essential Eight, and local data protection laws.
2. Google Workspace Compliance Support
Sentry Cyber helps organisations interpret and meet obligations under Australian regulations (including APPs), industry rules, international norms, and best practices. Support includes helping clients configure data protection policies (for example, Data Loss Prevention or DLP), establish legal and regulatory compliance mappings, generate audit-ready documentation and reports, and ensure that controls around email authentication, privacy, and data residency are robust. As part of this service, Sentry Cyber provides ongoing guidance so that compliance is not a one-off check but a maintained posture.

3. Cybersecurity Services Integrated into Google Workspace
Beyond audits and compliance, Sentry Cyber delivers full-spectrum cybersecurity services embedded in the Google Workspace environment. These include:
- Hardening security settings to reduce phishing risk, improve spam/malware filtering, enforce strong access controls like Multi-Factor Authentication, context-aware access and least-privileged permissions.
- Implementation of backup and disaster recovery strategies, defining Recovery Point Objectives (RPO) and Recovery Time Objectives (RTO), with partners offering robust retention and restore functionalities that Google’s native tools don’t always cover.
- Real-time ransomware detection and response services, with monitoring, alerts, rapid incident response to reduce potential downtime.

- Device and endpoint management, secure email authentication (SPF, DKIM, DMARC, BIMI), managing browser extensions and third-party apps, ensuring encryption in transit and at rest.
4. Consulting as a Google Workspace Security Consultant
Sentry Cyber now positions itself not only as a service provider but as partner and adviser. As a Google Workspace security consultant, Sentry engages with organisations from C-Suite and IT leadership to translate cyber risk into business risk, integrate security into workflows, train staff, manage change, and ensure any implementation of security controls minimizes disruption. Because compliance often involves behavioural change as much as technical change, consultant-led implementation plans focus on change management, staff awareness, and automation wherever possible to reduce cost and friction.
