, which is off by default. Once it's enabled for your organization, you can add CSE to any message in Gmail by clicking the lock icon on the right side of the"To" field and turning on the"Additional encryption" option. The compose panel will turn blue and may read"New encrypted message." Meanwhile, in Calendar, you can click the shield icon next to an event title to add"additional encryption" to the description, attachments and Google Meet call.

In any case, Google says that all essential Workspace apps are now covered by CSE.
