Gmail End-to-End Encryption Comes to iOS for Workspace Users

Gmail End-to-End Encryption Comes to iOS for Workspace Users

Google has expanded Gmail’s end-to-end encryption for Workspace users to iOS and Android, allowing mobile users to compose and read encrypted messages natively within the Gmail app for the first time. The feature is part of Gmail’s client-side encryption (CSE) offering, which until now was limited to desktop. According to Google’s Workspace update, users no longer need to download additional apps or use separate mail portals to handle encrypted email on mobile, and the experience is now built directly into the existing Gmail app on both platforms. Google says encrypted messages can be sent to any recipient regardless of their email provider. If the recipient uses Gmail, the message arrives as a standard email thread. If they use a different provider, they can read and reply via a secure browser interface without needing to install anything. The feature is available now for both Rapid Release and Scheduled Release domains. Access requires an Enterprise Plus plan with either the Assured Controls or Assured Controls Plus add-on, which is Google’s compliance-oriented tier aimed at enterprise and public …

Amazon S3 Files gives AI agents a native file system workspace, ending the object-file split that breaks multi-agent pipelines

Amazon S3 Files gives AI agents a native file system workspace, ending the object-file split that breaks multi-agent pipelines

AI agents run on file systems using standard tools to navigate directories and read file paths.  The challenge, however, is that there is a lot of enterprise data in object storage systems, notably Amazon S3. Object stores serve data through API calls, not file paths. Bridging that gap has required a separate file system layer alongside S3, duplicated data and sync pipelines to keep both aligned. The rise of agentic AI makes that challenge even harder, and it was affecting Amazon’s own ability to get things done. Engineering teams at AWS using tools like Kiro and Claude Code kept running into the same problem: Agents defaulted to local file tools, but the data was in S3. Downloading it locally worked until the agent’s context window compacted and the session state was lost. Amazon’s answer is S3 Files, which mounts any S3 bucket directly into an agent’s local environment with a single command. The data stays in S3, with no migration required. Under the hood, AWS connects its Elastic File System (EFS) technology to S3 to …

Google upgrades Gemini for Workspace allowing it to pull data from multiple apps to create Docs, Sheets, Slides and more

Google upgrades Gemini for Workspace allowing it to pull data from multiple apps to create Docs, Sheets, Slides and more

Lest you thought Microsoft would have all the fun introducing new AI features for white collar enterprise work this week with its Copilot Cowork announcement yesterday, Google is here to take back the spotlight. The search giant and, increasingly, AI leader today announced a sweeping series of updates to its Gemini AI models embedded into Google Workspace — the productivity suite of cloud-based apps including Drive, Docs, Sheets, Slides, and more. They’re being made available both to individual consumers and enterprises, though you’ll need an AI Pro ($20 per month) or higher subscription plan for the former, and your enterprise will need to be enrolled in the “Gemini Alpha” program and have the features switched on by an administrator. The biggest news: it’s now possible to have Gemini automatically create these file types from a single text prompt and fill them out with information gathered from other files and apps throughout you, the user’s Google Workspace, including emails, chats, files, and the open web via Google Search. By synthesizing information across these disparate apps and …

Google Workspace CLI brings Gmail, Docs, Sheets and more into a common interface for AI agents

Google Workspace CLI brings Gmail, Docs, Sheets and more into a common interface for AI agents

What’s old is new: the command line — the original, clunky non-graphical interface for interacting with and controlling PCs, where the user just typed in raw commands in code — has become one of the most important interfaces in agentic AI. That shift has been driven in part by the rise of coding-native tools such as Claude Code and Kilo CLI, which have helped establish a model where AI agents do not just answer questions in chat windows but execute real tasks through a shared, scriptable interface already familiar to developers — and which can still be found on virtually all PCs. For developers, the appeal is practical: the CLI is inspectable, composable and easier to control than a patchwork of custom app integrations. Now, Google Workspace — the umbrella term for Google’s suite of enterprise cloud apps including Drive, Gmail, Calendar, Sheets, Docs, Chat, Admin — is moving into that pattern with a new CLI that lets them access these applications and the data within them directly, without relying on third-party connectors. The project, …

I thought I needed a second monitor until I found this infinite workspace tool

I thought I needed a second monitor until I found this infinite workspace tool

I struggled to juggle multiple apps on my screen until the thought occurred to me to get a second monitor. For example, I could research on one screen while writing on another — no more constant app switching. I never thought to consider that Windows might have a tool that makes a multi-monitor setup unnecessary, especially for my kind of workflow. Windows has been improving the way users multitask on the system. Luckily, Windows has a hidden suite of tools with a feature that allows me to create custom window layouts that mimic multiple monitors — FancyZones. Now I can divide my screen as efficiently as possible to ensure that multitasking is a breeze. I don’t think I’m getting a second monitor anytime soon. Limited screen real estate can be a problem Snap Assist helps, but it’s also limited You know the drill when working with multiple apps on a single screen. This usually turns into a round of constantly pressing Alt + Tab to switch between two windows instead of viewing them side by …
