- saagarjha 4mo agoI don’t think Google should also offer a product that detects “managed Chrome”
- eli 4mo agoI don't think Google should also be allowed to remain in charge of Chrome at all but here we are.
- insanitybit 4mo agoUh, why? Context Aware Access is a policy attestation service. Managed Chrome is exactly the sort of thing you'd have policies for.
- hobofan 4mo agoOrganization admins may roll out hardened Firefox settings via their MDM solution, and then based on that want to restrict usage to Firefox.
- makeitdouble 4mo agoGoogle offering "Managed Chrome" is probably the root issue. Call me old school, but wedging an already dominant browser to be the only full fledge option in GSuite using companies reeks anti-competition.
- lokar 4mo agoYou don’t have to use managed chrome to use gsuite
- aaomidi 4mo agoI mean the issue here is Google using its dominant power to push for a specific browser within a security software they control. This is a difference between America and Europe in mentality towards this.
- lokar 4mo agoI don’t think that’s true. They support OS verification for windows and Mac. If Firefox implemented verification (I doubt they would) and there was customer demand I think they would support it.
- schuyler2d 4mo agoMicrosoft has a chrome and Firefox extension for similar management lockdown
