RYAN: Hey, admins.
Welcome to this month's edition of "What's
New for G Suite Admins."
Ryan here, and I'm back with the feature updates from November.
Let's get started.
Here's the headline news from November.
We're making secure LDAP generally available.
Secure LDAP lets you manage access
to traditional LDAP-based apps and IT infrastructure
using the G Suite Identity and Access Management platform.
This means you can use a single-layer user directory
to manage access to both your SaaS
apps and traditional LDAP-based apps and IT infrastructure.
And your users can use the same login credentials
for more apps and services.
Virtually any app that supports LDAP over SSL
can work with secure LDAP, whether it's hosted on-premises
or in the cloud.
We're actively working with many other companies
to validate their apps for this use case,
including Atlassian, Softerra, and Splunk, just to name a few.
For more information on how to get started with secure LDAP,
check out our Help Center.
And now for our admin updates.
Before you perform a search of Gmail messages in Google Vault,
you can see the number of results
that your search criteria will return.
This can help you plan next steps
and establish resources for review.
Going forward, in addition to the total number of results
when searching Gmail messages, you'll
also see the number of accounts with matches.
This can help you determine the key custodians involved
in an investigation.
We're also making it possible for admins
to programmatically read, create, and delete
saved search queries with the Vault Matters API.
This will allow you to quickly and easily copy
search parameters from one matter
to another, saving you valuable time.
For more info on how the Count feature works,
check out the Help Center.
We're now making it easier for you to organize and create
Android apps for your domain directly from the Admin
console.
To help your users find the apps they need,
you can now group whitelisted Android apps into collections
that users will see in the managed Google Play
Store from the Admin console.
This feature is only available to customers
with Advanced Mobile Device Management enabled.
We're now making it possible to publish a private Android
app directly from the Admin console,
and no longer require the time-consuming steps
in the Google Play Console.
The app will then appear in the managed Play Store
within minutes, as opposed to the hours
that it previously required.
This feature is only available to customers
with Advanced Mobile Device Management enabled.
Visit the Help Center for more on how to organize Android apps
and manage Google Play Private apps.
When it comes to protecting online accounts,
a strong password is the first line of defense.
With this launch, we're making it
possible to enforce additional rigorous password
requirements, for increased security
and to meet the organization's compliance needs.
These settings can be found in the Admin console
under Security, Password Management.
You can already see which passwords in your domain
are weak.
Enabling the setting will allow you
to force users with weak passwords to change them.
And you can choose to enforce password length and strength
requirements, either the next time a user changes
their password or the next time they log in.
To apply changes immediately, check the box
next to "Start password policy enforcement at next sign-in."
If you're unsure about whether you need to do this,
we recommend that you leave the setting as Never.
To prevent password reuse, we recommend
you leave the box for "Allow password reuse" unchecked.
This is the default. For more information
on advanced password controls, visit the Help Center.
With Single Sign-On, or SSO, users
can access all of their enterprise cloud applications
after signing in just one time.
With more than 800 applications with pre-integrated SSO support
in our third-party apps catalog already,
we're adding an additional 10 applications,
including GoodData, LiquidFiles, and VersionOne,
just to name a few.
You can find a full list of our pre-integrated applications,
as well as instructions for installing them,
in the Help Center.
Well that's it for November's updates.
