Google Workspace Changes

Context-aware access controls are now available for Gemini Enterprise in the Admin console, allowing admins to set granular security policies based on device and location.

Google Workspace administrators can now configure context-aware access (CAA) policies for Gemini Enterprise directly in the Admin console, selecting granular security attributes such as device security and location settings for both personal and managed devices. Admins can create policies that restrict access from specific geographic regions and reuse existing Workspace CAA policies for Gemini Enterprise. The feature is rolling out gradually to Rapid and Scheduled Release domains starting September 8, 2026, with completion by September 15, 2026, and is available for Enterprise Standard, Enterprise Plus, Education Standard, Education Plus, Frontline Standard/Plus, Enterprise Essentials Plus, and Cloud Identity Premium customers who have purchased Gemini Enterprise.
