Google Workspace + Proofpoint Essentials + Dropbox Business — The Small Business Cloud Bundle
Most small businesses are running consumer email, no email security layer, and file storage scattered across personal drives. That's three separate vulnerabilities, three separate vendor support lines, and zero visibility when something goes wrong. Iron Cove bundles all three into one managed package — configured, integrated, and supported by certified engineers.
This bundle combines Google Workspace's productivity suite, Proofpoint Essentials' email threat protection, and Dropbox Business's team file storage into a single, managed package built for small businesses. You get enterprise-grade tools without the enterprise IT team — Iron Cove handles procurement, setup, migration, and ongoing support across all three platforms.

Why Choose Iron Cove as Your Cloud Access Security Broker
A Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB) sits between your team and your cloud apps — enforcing security policies, controlling access, and ensuring compliance across Google Workspace, Proofpoint, and Dropbox. Here's why small businesses choose Iron Cove over managing it themselves or going direct.
Tailored for Small Teams
Small businesses don't need enterprise-scale complexity. Our certified CASB specialists deliver straightforward, effective cloud security that fits your team size and budget — no unnecessary bells and whistles.

Proven Results at Every Scale
We bring enterprise implementation expertise down to smaller organizations. Our CASB deployments have helped businesses like yours gain cloud visibility, block threats, and meet compliance — without needing an in-house IT team.
Before the Bundle vs. After

|---|---|---|

| File Storage & Sharing | Personal Dropbox or USB drives | Dropbox Business — 5 TB team storage, audit logs, access controls |
| User Provisioning | Manual, per-app account creation | Automated on/offboarding across all three platforms |
| Support | Vendor self-service portals | Named Iron Cove engineer via Slack or phone |
| Compliance | No framework coverage | GDPR, HIPAA, and SOC 2 controls configurable |
| Billing | Three separate invoices | One partner, one conversation |
