Rubrik Data Protection for Google Workspace launched on March 23, 2026, giving more than 11 million enterprises using Google Drive and Gmail access to a unified cybersecurity platform. The solution aims to help organizations achieve end-to-end cyber resilience across data, identity, and AI operations. Rubrik (NYSE: RBRK) made the announcement from Dubai, United Arab Emirates.

Google Workspace serves as a suite of artificial intelligence productivity tools that enables teams to collaborate remotely. The platform holds mission-critical data for millions of users across organizations worldwide. Rubrik said its new solution helps reduce the risk of significant data loss, business disruption, and suspended operations for those customers.

Rubrik Data Protection: Core Features for Google Workspace

The solution delivers four primary capabilities to Google Workspace customers. These features address backup integrity, recovery speed, compliance requirements, and operational continuity. Rubrik said the platform accelerates recovery of operations from days to minutes while keeping original data and systems intact.

  • Logical Air-Gap Protection: Immutable, air-gapped backups for Gmail and Google Drive, preventing unauthorized modification of stored data.
  • High-Fidelity, Rapid Recovery: Restores data while preserving permissions, replacing manual processes that strip access rights.
  • Automated, Policy-Driven SLAs: Additional protection layers to help organizations meet Recovery Point Objective (RPO) and Recovery Time Objective (RTO) requirements.
  • Seamless Continuity: A point-and-click recovery experience that reduces reconstruction time from days to minutes.

Executive Commentary on the Launch

“Organizations can’t protect data in isolation. Modern resilience requires us to see the entire estate at once. Rubrik is built on three pillars of resilience — data, identity, and AI — because an attack or error in one is a direct threat to the entire ecosystem. With our deep collaboration with Google Cloud, our core mission is to empower today’s organizations with a unified platform that offers trust and complete cyber resilience.”
