Steps to Setup Endpoint Verification
Endpoint Verification: Administrators use endpoint verification to verify device access to the organization’s data. The device security and management features depend on the Google Workspace edition. The endpoint needs a Chrome browser. It is available as a web store extension. The endpoint verification allows the Workspace administrators to view the OS, device status, and user information.
If the user accesses the work account, the administrator wants the user to set verification. First, administrators review information about the user’s device. Likewise, device and access to apps based on location, security access, and other attributes are also controlled. Device verification was performed using Google endpoint management. If your verification extension for Google Workspace is not working, follow the steps.
