Catalyst offers email integration with Microsoft or Google. Although adding Catalyst as a trusted app is no longer required for your teams to connect their Gmail accounts with Catalyst, your organization may still require these steps.
Catalyst uses Nylas as a trusted vendor to connect with your Google Services. Nylas is both SOC2 and ISO certified; find more details here: nylas.com/security
