If your business relies on email, you need to know it’s reaching customers’ inboxes—and that no one can impersonate your brand.
Our Google Workspace secure email setup gives you the same level of protection used by major banks, government departments, and high-security organisations. We configure your domain to industry-leading standards, ensuring your emails are trusted, authenticated, and delivered reliably, while blocking spoofing, phishing, and unauthorised use of your identity.
This is enterprise-grade email security, made simple and accessible for business owners and marketing teams.
We setup Google Workspace. You pay for Workspace direct to Google. Costs for Workspace can be found here: Google Workspace costs.
Tekate is a member of the Google Cloud Partner Advantage program.
Why You Need This
Only about 20% of emails sent use the best security possible and less than 0.5% of domains are set to send email securely with MTA-STS. We would liek to fix that one client at a time.
Email deliverability today depends on correct configuration of:
- SPF
- DKIM
- DMARC
- MTA-STS
- TLS-RPT
- Cloudflare DNS
- Google Workspace authentication
If any part is misconfigured, you risk:
- Emails going to spam
- Failing security checks
- Spoofing / phishing attacks
- Loss of sensitive data
- Deliverability issues with Gmail, Outlook, Microsoft 365, Yahoo, Apple Mail, etc.
Our service ensures everything is set up correctly — from the beginning.
