Huntress Surpasses 10 Million Microsoft 365 Identities Protected, Expands ITDR Coverage to Google Workspace
Building on the success of its ITDR solution for Microsoft 365, Huntress expands its identity protection across the cloud ecosystem to protect Google Workspace
SAN FRANCISCO, March 24, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- RSA CONFERENCE – Huntress today announced the expansion of its Managed Identity Threat Detection & Response solution (ITDR) to Google Workspace (GWS). As part of the Huntress Agentic Security Platform and backed by a 24/7, AI-centric SOC, the solution delivers detection and response capabilities to one of the fastest-growing targets for cloud identity attacks.
The expansion comes as Huntress surpasses 10 million Microsoft 365 identities protected with its Managed ITDR, across more than 93,000 organizations.
Google Workspace has become far more than a productivity suite — it is now the operational backbone of modern organizations, powering email, authentication, and SaaS access. Attackers have shifted their focus accordingly. Identity-based attacks accounted for 40% of all security incidents in 2025, with attackers hijacking sessions, abusing OAuth grants, manipulating MFA flows, and exploiting trusted access paths that bypass traditional endpoint defenses.
Yet, many organizations still rely on legacy email security tools, leaving Google Workspace vulnerable to modern attacks.
Huntress Managed ITDR for Google Workspace prioritizes high-signal attacker behaviors over noisy telemetry to detect and stop identity abuse in real time, including:
- Unexpected Login Activity – Identifies anomalous authentication behavior and enforces configuration rules for trusted locations or VPN access.
- Malicious Inbox Rule Persistence – Detects attacker-created Gmail filters designed to suppress MFA notifications, hide security alerts, or delete victim correspondence to reduce dwell time and eliminate stealthy persistence.
-
Malicious Datacenter Utilization - Tracks when identities authenticate from new data center providers (measured by ASN/ISP), prioritizing the “usual suspects” that are most abused by threat actors.
“Hackers aren’t breaking in anymore, they’re logging in, and Google Workspace is increasingly at the center of that risk,” said Prakash Ramamurthy, Chief Product Officer at Huntress. “When identity becomes the front door to the business, organizations need experts who can detect attacker behavior in real time and shut it down. With our expansion of Managed ITDR to Google Workspace, we’re ensuring businesses are protected across the cloud ecosystem without adding operational burden to resource-constrained security teams.”
The expansion also builds on Huntress’ existing Managed ITDR coverage for Microsoft 365, giving organizations unified identity detection and response across the platforms that power today’s workforce.
“As we increasingly rely on Google Workspace as our identity hub, we’ve realized traditional email security simply isn’t enough,” said Blair Compton, IT Director at BizStream. “Huntress Managed ITDR for GWS gives us confidence that identity threats will be investigated and handled by experts, not surfaced as yet another alert for our team to chase.”
Huntress Managed ITDR for Google Workspace is available now to new and existing Huntress customers. Learn more about Managed ITDR here or sign up for a free, 14-day trial.
“Managing identity risk across our Google Workspace tenants used to be a constant resource strain on our team, especially when attacks look like normal user behavior,” said Jason Caine, Chief Engineer at CCP Tech. “Huntress gives us a trusted partner to help us protect our clients more effectively, while freeing up our team to focus on what matters to clients and their growing businesses.”
