RYAN: Hey, admins.
Welcome to March's edition of What's New for G Suite Admins.
This is Ryan.
And I'm excited to share with you the feature
updates from March, 2019.
Let's get started.
And here's the headline news for March.
We're opening a beta program for dynamic email in Gmail.
Dynamic email allows email senders
to embed Accelerated Mobile Pages, or AMP,
into messages themselves, making them more useful
and interactive in Gmail.
Your emails can stay up to date so you're always
seeing the freshest information, like the latest comment
threads from a doc or taking actions, like filling out forms
or replying to comments inline directly,
from within the message itself.
You can opt in to the Gmail beta program
by going to the Admin console and then
navigating to Apps, G Suite, Settings
for Gmail, User Settings.
Here, you'll be able to select the option
to enable dynamic email for your users.
This feature is currently only available in Gmail on the web,
with mobile coming soon.
Email users who want to send dynamic emails
must register with Google before their messages
appear for end users.
For more information on how dynamic email works,
check out the Help Center.
Here are our admin updates.
We're also opening a beta program
for Gmail confidential mode.
With confidential mode, it's easier
to protect sensitive content in your emails
by creating expiration dates or revoking previously sent
messages and removing options for recipients
to forward, copy, print, and download messages.
Gmail confidential mode in our beta program
is available as an opt-in to all G Suite customers.
Admins can opt in to the beta by going to the Admin console
and navigating to Apps, G Suite, Settings
for Gmail, User Settings.
Here, they will be able to select the option
to enable confidential mode.
In addition to protecting sensitive content
in your emails with expiration dates,
you can also require additional authentication via text message
to view an email.
This makes it possible to protect data
even if a recipient's email account has been hijacked
while the message is active.
And when your users send or receive messages
in Gmail confidential mode, Vault
will retain, preserve, search, and export
confidential mode messages from within your organization.
Check out the Help Center to learn more
about Gmail confidential mode.
Google Vault lets you support your organization's retention
and e-discovery needs.
With this launch, Google Vault is
adding support for two new data types
so that you can comprehensively govern your organization's
data.
With Gmail's confidential mode, as previously mentioned,
Vault will retain, preserve, search, and export
these messages sent by users in your organization.
And you'll be able to retain Jamboard data through Vault
with the same retention rules that you set for Google Drive.
See our Help Center to learn more.
We're opening a beta program for G Suite Migrate.
This new product will help admins assess and plan
migration projects and migrate large amounts
of valuable content directly into G Suite.
With G Suite Migrate, you can scan source environments
to help accurately plan for key project milestones
and watch points, migrate valuable data
from a variety of sources, and identify project progress
and health with detailed aggregate and granular logging
functionality.
For more details and how to apply for the beta,
see the form in the presentation notes.
We're updating how 2-step verification
works for G Suite that we hope will make it easier to use.
There are three key impacts--
a new 2-step verification interface
flow when using a Bluetooth or USB security key,
different dialogue screens on browsers like Chrome, Safari,
and Firefox, and lastly, Bluetooth security
key support that can be enabled through a flag on each device.
Use our Help Center to learn how to set up 2-step verification
for your organization.
And while we're on the topic of 2-step verification, let's talk
about the different forms it's available in,
like SMS or voice verification codes, the Google Authenticator
app, and security keys.
We've long advocated the use of security keys
for those who want the strongest account protection.
And so we're adding an option for you
admins to disable your users from using SMS and voice codes
for 2-factor authentication.
This new policy will give you more control over the security
methods used in your domain and increase
the security of your users' accounts and their data.
The new policy is not enabled by a default.
But you can apply the new policy in the Admin console
by going to Security, Advanced Security Settings, Allow
2-step Verification Methods.
For more info, check out the Help Center.
We're introducing a new set of actionable alerts in Hangouts
Meet devices for when issues with peripherals
or connectivity or network issues are detected.
These improved alerts will provide you
with additional information to proactively manage
your network and devices for improved availability
and end-user experience.
We're launching a beta program for a new feature that
allows users to search for Google Drive files
they have access to when using the Chrome search URL box.
Users in the beta can now search files in Drive
by owner or type, where previously, they
could only search for a title or URL of a web page.
This feature will give users faster access
to the files and data they need while searching
in Google Chrome.
Users will now be able to see the Google Docs, Sheets,
Slides, PDFs, and other file type suggestions from both My
Drive and Shared with Me when searching
in the Chrome browser.
For more details and how to apply for the beta,
see the form in the presenter's notes.
We're making it easier to manage Google Groups through the Admin
console.
These new improvements include when you create a group,
the new settings card will help you quickly view and customize
group settings, the new hover menu
to get quick access to member management and group settings,
and using pop-up controls, you'll
be able to add members, manage members, edit settings,
and delete groups.
By giving you these easy to use controls for Google Groups
details, we hope to make it easier for you to share and use
information.
Check out the Help Center to get more info on managing groups.
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
and our third-party apps catalogue
already, we're adding an additional five applications,
including Clear Review, HubSpot, and Workable,
just to name a few.
You can find our full list of pre-integrated applications,
as well as instructions for installing them,
in the Help Center.
Well, that's it for March's updates.
