Learn how to connect your company's Google email workspace to map your organization's data sources and employee usage.
By connecting to your Google email workspace, MineOS automatically discovers every system that collects, stores, or processes user data across your organization. This also includes dormant accounts related to past employees (shadow IT).
MineOS's auto-discovery is real-time and continuous, allowing you to monitor any new data source added to your record. In addition, data sources will be transparent and visible according to use and departments within the company.
