In G Suite, administrators can disable automatic forwarding of Gmail incoming emails with admin privileges.

Background for Wanting to Disable Gmail Auto-forwarding

A certain company uses G Suite, and I heard that “someone is automatically forwarding emails from the company Gmail account to their personal Gmail account.”

My personal view is that forwarding company emails to personal Gmail accounts should be avoided from an information leak prevention perspective.

The reason is that even if the company enforces two-factor authentication on company Google accounts, if two-factor authentication is not enabled on personal accounts, it creates a high security risk state that could lead to information leaks through account hacking and other means.

How to Disable Gmail Auto-forwarding

The setup method is documented in the official G Suite help, so please refer to the following:

That’s all from the Gemba, where we want to disable Gmail automatic email forwarding to prevent information leaks.
