If you run security for an organization on Google Workspace, you already know the hard part is not collecting the data. The logs are flowing. The real challenge is turning all of it into a clear answer to one simple question: how much risk are we carrying in Workspace right now?
Google Workspace is where many organizations live: email, files, identities, and the long tail of third-party apps connected to it. Today, we’re excited to announce a new suite of Google Workspace dashboards built to answer exactly that question, turning the sprawl of data, documents, and users into a clear, prioritized security picture.
A single UncommonX dashboard overview rolls up the signals that matter most across every Workspace log source, including suspicious logins, OAuth grants, over-permissioned apps, external file shares, and admin changes, and tells you, at a glance, what's actually being collected from your tenant so nothing gets missed. From there you can drill straight into the area that needs attention.

The real value is in the insights each view surfaces, so let me walk you through them.
The OAuth dashboard is the one I'm most excited about. It reframes third-party app risk the way attackers think about it: an app's danger is its most sensitive scope multiplied by how many users granted it, which is the blast radius if that vendor is ever breached. It flags unverified apps holding Gmail or Drive access, and separates apps that are actively using sensitive permissions from dormant over-grants you can safely revoke.


From there, the Login dashboard goes beyond raw sign-in counts to highlight Google-flagged suspicious logins and the high-signal account-takeover events that are easy to miss, like external mail forwarding, recovery email and phone changes, and 2-Step Verification being disabled.

On the data side, the Drive dashboard shows exactly what content is leaving your organization through external and public sharing and who is doing the sharing, while the Admin dashboard tracks configuration changes, domain-wide delegation grants, and staff-access events that change your security posture.

Taken together, these dashboards close the gap between "we have Google Workspace logs somewhere" and "we know our Workspace risk right now."
Every view is built to move you from detection to action, ranking the highest-risk apps, users, and shares first, with built-in AI analysis that summarizes posture and recommends concrete next steps.
Whether you're hunting for a compromised account, cleaning up risky OAuth grants, or proving control over data exposure, the Google Workspace suite gives your team the visibility to act with confidence.
The Google Workspace dashboards are available now. If you're already an UncommonX customer, you can open the suite in your environment and check your Workspace risk today.
See everything. Miss nothing.
It is for the IT and security leader who keeps adding tools and feeling less safe. It is for the IT and security leader who suspects the playbook the industry has handed them doesn't reflect the current environment. It is for the IT and security leader who is ready to ask, why am I settling for common security?
If that is you, let us show you what's now possible. Book a demo today.
