USM Anywhere - G Suite Setup

USM Anywhere - G Suite Setup

Once the integration is enabled ( G-Suite APP ) the predefined log collection jobs take place and queue the events for analysis.

This provides the additional G-Suite Dashboard.

Currently, the AlienApp for G Suite supports the connection of one G Suite account per USM Anywhere Sensor. If you have more than one G Suite account that you want to monitor in USM Anywhere, you must configure each for a different Sensor.
