- Google Chrome Enterprise will now support custom branding with logos
- The browser becomes more visually distinct for work users
- More Admin -Control is also here for Byod policies
Google Chrome Enterprise users will now see improved warning tags when logged in to a work profile, and hopefully help them keep personal and work browsing sessions separate.
The improved interface and branding changes are even more prominent for clearly separate work and personal profiles.
The change was announced in an update to the business-oriented version of Google’s popular web browser along with upgrades to the login experience and improved reporting for administrators.
Chrome Enterprise warnings
“With the browser that plays a more critical role in daily work, it is more important than ever for IT teams to make it clear to employees that they are logged into a business browsing experience managed and monitored by their company,” wrote product manager Julia Lomakina and group product manager Hakan Kilic in a blog post.
Leaders explained how companies can use their own branding and logos to customize the Chrome experience. They also noticed that employees can use the browser to understand what additional controls may be in place, imposed by their workplaces.
Lomakina and Kilic noted that even if companies decide not to customize their Chrome Enterprise, upcoming releases will add more features to make work browsers stand out from personal: “Employees will receive an indication that they are in a managed ‘work’ profile environment.”
In recognition of the continued popularity of hybrid work, Post also highlights new reporting features that allow admins to see signed managed users across platforms including Windows, Mac, Linux and Android, which is good for companies to bring-your-own devices (Byod) policies.
LOGO BROXT CONNEES is available for Chrome Enterprise Core, which is available to all companies at no extra cost. Advanced data protection and profile reporting come with Chrome Enterprise Premium package.
