Admins can now deploy Context-Aware Access for NotebookLM and NotebookLM Plus
Monday, March 17, 2025
What’s changing
Building upon the recent announcement of NotebookLM and NotebookLM Plus becoming available as a Google Workspace core service with enterprise-grade data protection, we’re excited to introduce the ability for admins to specify Context-Aware Access (CAA) policies when their users access NotebookLM and NotebookLM Plus.
Who’s impacted
Admins and end users
Why it’s important
Using Context-Aware Access, admins can set up different access levels for NotebookLM and NotebookLM Plus based on a user’s identity and the context of the request (location, device security status, IP address). This can help provide granular access controls without the need for a VPN, and give users access to Google Workspace resources based on organizational policies.
