Google Pitches Workspace As Microsoft Email Alternative, Citing CSRB Report
DARK Reading, Monday, May 20th, 2024
The new Secure Alternative Program from Google aims to entice customers away from Exchange Online and break Microsoft's dominance in the enterprise.
Google is using a recent report from the US Cyber Safety Review Board (CSRB) that was critical of Microsoft's security practices to make a case for its own Google Workspace suite of cloud-hosted email and office productivity apps.
In two separate blogs - and without once referring to Microsoft by name - company executives cited the CSRB report as reason why enterprise organizations should consider moving away from Microsoft Exchange Online hosted email to Google Workspace.
