Examine the most recent developments in Chrome Enterprise Premium.

The browser is the center of the modern office. Employees can work together, handle sensitive data, and access vital applications there. Because of this, the browser is crucial to security enforcement.

The most reliable business browser, Chrome Enterprise, just unveiled robust new features for Chrome Enterprise Premium that are intended to improve security, threat detection, and usability even further. Let’s investigate them.

Watermarking improves the avoidance of data loss

Now widely accessible, watermarking can help prevent data leaks by superimposing a semi-transparent, customizable watermark on vulnerable websites. The watermark clearly identifies the content as confidential when a user views a page that sets off a Data Loss Prevention (DLP) rule.

By raising security awareness, this visual reminder can help stop unwanted sharing. For instance, a company may set up watermarks to show up on websites that include private product designs or sensitive financial information.

By adding an additional degree of security, the watermark lets users know that the content they are viewing is private and shouldn’t be shared. Setting up watermarks is explained here.

Apply a watermark on specific webpages

Applies to Chrome browsers running on Windows, Mac, and Linux as well as controlled ChromeOS devices.

On websites that comply with the data protection guidelines you establish, you, as the administrator, can display a watermark with your own personalized text that shows up as a translucent watermark.

What you require

Chrome browser version 127 

Chrome Enterprise Premium license

Make a regulation for data protection

Open the Google Admin panel and log in.

Use a super administrator-level account to log in, not your existing one.

Navigate to Menu and then Rules in the admin console.

Click Create rule on the Rules page.

Pick Data protection from the drop-down option.

Enter the rule’s name and description in the Name field.

Choose which organizational units and/or groups are covered by this rule under Scope.

Click “Continue.”

Choose the apps you wish to secure your data in. Check the URL visited with Chrome.

Click “Continue.”

Define the data you want this rule to look for under Conditions. Select what to search for and what kind of content to scan URL or URL category.

Set your rule’s access level for context conditions. See Combine Data Loss Prevention rules with Context-Aware access conditions for information on access levels, including how to establish new ones.

Select an option for Actions:

Please note that adding a watermark is not required. The Add watermark over page content box can be checked or unchecked as necessary.

Only audit a watermark must be added. The Add watermark over page content box cannot be unchecked.

In the Add watermark over page content box, click the box if you choose Allow with warning.

Check the “Customize watermark” message box if you want to. In Chrome, type the words to have it appear as a translucent watermark text atop the page content. The webpage displays the default Confidential when left empty.

Note: The device/user ID, timestamp, and UTC time zone are displayed in both default and customized messages.

Choose from the Low, Medium, or High security levels for alerting.

(Optional) Check the Send to alert center box to report incidents in the alert center, where you can see notifications about possible problems and take action to fix them. In this step, add recipients if you would like to receive email notifications.

Click “Continue.”

Examine the requirements for your regulation.

Click “Create.”

Advanced URL filtering

Advanced URL filtering and threat detection

A key component of any safe business browser is URL filtering. Now that Chrome Enterprise Premium has an optional audit-only mode for URL filtering, managers may keep an eye on user profiles and behavior in corporately managed browsers without preventing access to the filtered websites. Businesses can use the audit-only mode to improve URL filtering rules, block dangerous websites, and train staff on safe surfing techniques. It also offers useful insights into security concerns and risky user behavior.

What is URL filtering?

As a security mechanism, URL filtering limits access to particular websites or web pages according to their Uniform Resource Locator (URL). Network gateways, internet service providers (ISPs), or individual devices are some of the different levels at which it can be applied.

Using Chrome Security Insights to streamline security management

Chrome Security Insights gives Chrome Enterprise Core users visibility into possible attacks while streamlining security monitoring. Administrators only need to click a few times to:

Turn on automatic security event logging and Chrome Enterprise Connectors;

To check for sensitive data transfers, turn on 50 popular DLP detectors; additionally,

Provide informative reports about the people, domains, and data types engaged in high-risk operations.

Administrators may detect and handle any insider risk and data exfiltration incidents more rapidly by using Chrome Security Insights, which lessens the work involved in setting up and maintaining DLP policies. By taking a proactive approach to security, firms may reduce the impact of any breaches and stay ahead of threats.

Chrome Security Insights enables IT teams to concentrate on other important duties while preserving a high degree of security by streamlining security management. Any organization utilizing Chrome Enterprise Core may easily activate this capability, which is presently in preview, right from the Google Admin console home page.
