Recommended Actions

  1. Manually verify sanctions screening: Cross-check Google LLC and its relevant subsidiaries against the OFAC Specially Designated Nationals list (https://sanctionssearch.ofac.treas.gov/) and the EU Consolidated Sanctions List to close the gap left by the unavailable automated screening source.
  2. Locate and review Google's subprocessor list for Workspace and Drive specifically at https://workspace.google.com/terms/subprocessors.html — document the subprocessors relevant to your data access scope, confirm none operate in restricted jurisdictions, and retain a copy for your vendor risk file.
  3. Request or locate Google Workspace's current compliance documentation — including SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certificates for Workspace — by visiting https://workspace.google.com/security/ or https://cloud.google.com/security/compliance. Many of these reports are available via Google's Compliance Reports Manager at https://cloud.google.com/security/compliance/compliance-reports-manager.

Frequently asked about Google Drive

Is Google Drive safe to use as a vendor?+
Google Drive can be evaluated for vendor safety by checking sanctions databases (OFAC, EU, UN), verifying business registration through legal entity registries like GLEIF, scanning for adverse media coverage including data breaches and regulatory actions, and assessing domain security and cyber risk posture. ThirdProof automates this entire investigation across 24 intelligence sources and produces a deterministic risk tier (1-5 scale) with a confidence score. Run a free investigation to see Google Drive's full risk profile.
Does Google Drive have SOC 2 certification?+
To verify whether Google Drive holds SOC 2 certification, ThirdProof scans the vendor's trust page and security documentation for certification claims, then cross-references those claims against independent registries where available (such as the FedRAMP Marketplace for FedRAMP authorization). Certifications are classified as independently verified, vendor attested, or not found in evidence — ensuring you know the verification level of each claim.
Is Google Drive FedRAMP authorized?+
Based on ThirdProof's investigation, Google Drive is not currently listed on the FedRAMP Marketplace. Organizations with federal compliance requirements should verify this directly and consider alternative vendors with FedRAMP authorization where required.
Has Google Drive had any data breaches?+
ThirdProof's adverse media analysis searches multiple news APIs and public records for data breaches, security incidents, lawsuits, regulatory enforcement actions, and financial distress signals involving Google Drive. Each finding is linked to its original source with severity classification. The investigation also checks SEC EDGAR for enforcement-related filings and FDIC records for financial institution failures, providing a comprehensive public record review.
Is Google Drive on any sanctions lists?+
ThirdProof screens Google Drive against OFAC SDN, consolidated international sanctions lists, and PEP (Politically Exposed Persons) databases. The screening uses entity name verification to reduce false positives from similar names. If Google Drive or any associated officers appear on a sanctions list, this triggers an automatic escalation to the highest risk tier. No sanctions match is confirmed through a clean screening report in the investigation output.
How do I assess Google Drive for vendor risk?+
ThirdProof investigates Google Drive autonomously in under 2 minutes using 24 intelligence sources — no questionnaires, no vendor participation required. The investigation covers sanctions screening, cyber risk scoring, business registration, adverse media, domain security, and more.
