The core evaluations include:; ; Screen Reader Compatibility: Testing with AT such as NVDA, JAWS, and VoiceOver to verify that the chat's dynamic nature is announced correctly. This involves validating the proper use of ARIA live regions to announce new AI responses and ensuring the conversation history is logically structured for sequential reading.; ; Keyboard Accessibility: Rigorous testing is performed using keyboard-only navigation to ensure every component—from the chat launch icon and input field to suggested prompts and interactive elements—is fully operable without a mouse.; ; Focus and Context: Testers verify that the keyboard focus is logically managed, particularly when opening/closing the chat and navigating between messages, ensuring a predictable and efficient experience for all users.; ; This methodology feeds into the official Voluntary Product Accessibility Templates (VPATs), affirming compliance with global accessibility regulations.

Scaling

• Independence of resources: Google’s services are designed for millions of users. Google runs multiple different performance tests, including load testing Google Workspace applications under high load over a long period, to observe effects on factors, such as memory use and response time. Google also performs stress testing to examine system performance in unusual situations, including system functional testing while under unusually heavy loads, heavy repetition of certain actions or inputs, or input of large numerical values and large, complex queries to a database system. Ensuring the addition of any practicable number of users has a very low impact on using Google Workspace services.

Further details can found here: https://cloud.google.com/security/compliance
• Software Security Code of Practice: Yes

Operational security

• Configuration and change management standard: Complies with a recognised standard, for example CSA CCM v4.0 or SSAE-18 / ISAE 3402
• Configuration and change management approach: In Google production environments, software updates are manually vetted to ensure the stability of the system. Changes are then tested and cautiously rolled out to systems. The details vary somewhat depending on the service being considered, but all development work is separated from the operation systems, testing occurs in a multi-staged fashion in both environments and in dedicated test settings. Google can share, under NDA, the SOC2 audit report (based on standards from the International Auditing and Assurance Standards Board), which describes the change management process. Additionally, changes to code go through a process of code review involving additional engineer(s)
• Vulnerability management type: Complies with a recognised standard, for example CSA CCM v4.0 or SSAE-18 / ISAE 3402
• Vulnerability management approach: Google administrates a vulnerability management process that actively scans for security threats using a combination of commercially available and purpose-built tools, intensive automated/manual penetration efforts, quality assurance processes, software security reviews and external audits. The vulnerability management team is responsible for tracking and following up on vulnerabilities. Once a vulnerability requiring remediation has been identified, it is logged, prioritised according to severity, and assigned an owner. The vulnerability management team tracks such issues and follows up frequently until they can verify that the issues have been remediated. Google also maintains relationships and interfaces with members of the security research community.
• Protective monitoring type: Supplier-defined controls
• Protective monitoring approach: Focused on information gathered from network traffic, employee actions on systems and outside knowledge of vulnerabilities. Traffic is inspected at many points for suspicious behaviour. Analysis is performed using open-source and commercial tools for traffic capture and parsing, supported by a correlation system built on top of Google technology. Analysis is supplemented by examining system logs for unusual behaviour, such as attempted access of customer data. Security engineers place standing alerts on public data repositories to look for security incidents that might affect company infrastructure. They actively review inbound security reports and monitor public mailing lists, blog posts, and wikis.
• Incident management type: Supplier-defined controls
• Incident management approach: If an incident occurs, the security team logs and prioritises it according to severity. Events directly impacting customers are assigned the highest priority. This process specifies courses of action, procedures for notification, escalation, mitigation, and documentation. Google’s incident management program is structured around NIST guidance on handling incidents. Key staff are trained in forensics and handling evidence in preparation for an event, including the use of third-party and proprietary tools. Testing of incident response plans is performed for key areas, such as systems that store sensitive customer information. Tests consider a variety of scenarios, including insider threats and software vulnerabilities.
