Huntress has expanded its Managed Identity Threat Detection & Response (ITDR) solution to include Google Workspace (GWS). As part of the Huntress Agentic Security Platform, this extension aims to address the increasing risk of cloud identity attacks targeting one of the fastest-growing enterprise platforms.
The company’s Managed ITDR already protects over 10 million Microsoft 365 identities across more than 93,000 organisations. With many businesses relying on Google Workspace as a core operational platform, the need to secure these environments has grown.
Identity-based attacks now include session hijacking, OAuth exploitation, and manipulation of Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) processes.
Many organisations continue to rely on traditional email security tools, leaving gaps in protection. Huntress Managed ITDR focuses on high-priority attacker behaviours to detect and mitigate identity abuse in real time, including:
- Unexpected Login Activity – Monitoring anomalous authentication and enforcing location-based access rules.
- Malicious Inbox Rule Persistence – Detecting unauthorised Gmail filters designed to hide or remove security alerts.
- Malicious Datacentre Utilisation – Tracking logins from new data centres, focusing on frequently exploited providers.
This expansion complements Huntress’ existing Microsoft 365 coverage, creating a unified identity detection framework across multiple cloud platforms. By centralising threat detection, security teams can hope to reduce operational strain and concentrate on critical threats rather than managing excessive alerts.
Huntress Managed ITDR for Google Workspace is available now for new and existing customers, aiming to provide organisations with enhanced protection and operational resilience amid the evolving cyber threat landscape.
