Keeper Security Brings Zero Trust Identity Governance Directly into Google Chat for Google Workspace Users

Terry KS 3 weeks ago
Keeper Security has launched a new integration that connects its zero-trust and zero-knowledge identity security platform directly with Google Chat for Google Workspace environments. The feature enables teams to handle privileged access requests, retrieve credentials, and manage workflows within their collaboration workspace without compromising client-side encryption.

SINGAPORE, 25 SEPTEMBER 2026 – Keeper Security, a leading provider of zero-trust and zero-knowledge identity protection, has introduced a new integration that brings access approval management and secure credential retrieval directly into Google Chat. The release extends zero-trust identity governance across Google Workspace ecosystems, allowing enterprise teams to manage privileged credentials within their daily collaboration channels.

By embedding security workflows into Google Chat, the integration resolves operational barriers for organizations relying on Google Workspace. System administrators can process vault access requests, review justification notes, assign granular permissions, and handle real-time elevation requests without toggling between multiple security tools.

Craig Lurey, Chief Technology Officer and Co-founder of Keeper Security, emphasized the importance of delivering access controls inside active team communication tools. He noted that integrating directly with chat keeps core infrastructure isolated because the chat app functions solely as an interface, while verification and end-to-end encryption execute locally to ensure credentials never exist in transit to external networks.

The Google Chat integration operates on an organization’s existing infrastructure via Commander Service Mode, preserving end-to-end encryption and ensuring zero knowledge of sensitive credentials outside local environments.

Key functionality provided by the integration includes:

  • Vault Record Requests: Submit and approve credential requests with custom permissions and time-bound access limits.
  • Endpoint Privilege Escalation: Streamline just-in-time privilege elevations via Endpoint Privilege Manager.
  • Federated Authentication Approvals: Facilitate SSO Cloud device verifications directly through messaging threads.
  • Live Request Feeds: Route approval notifications to dedicated channels to prevent workflow delays.
  • Audit Trail Management: Capture centralized audit logs of access approvals and credential usage for compliance reviews.
  • The Google Chat integration is available immediately to global enterprise clients holding active licenses for Keeper Secrets Manager or KeeperPAM.
