U-M reviewing Gmail confidential mode before release

June 27, 2019

You may have read in various news articles that Google announced it would turn on Gmail confidential mode for G Suite users on JuneĀ 25. U-M, like many institutions, has disabled this feature to allow for appropriate review and analysis. ITS staff members in Collaboration Services and Information Assurance are working with the U-M Office of the General Counsel and others to better understand the new feature and its potential use at the university, as well as to determine what guidance and support might be needed for its use.
