Secure the new endpoint: Check out Chrome Enterprise Premium's latest innovations

The modern workplace revolves around the browser. It's where employees access critical applications, handle sensitive data, and collaborate with colleagues. This makes the browser a critical point for enforcing security. 

Chrome Enterprise, the most trusted enterprise browser, recently introduced powerful new capabilities for Chrome Enterprise Premium designed to further enhance security, threat detection, and usability. Let’s check them out. 

Enhanced data loss prevention with watermarking

Watermarking, now generally available, can help deter data leaks by overlaying a customizable, semi-transparent watermark on sensitive web pages. When a user visits a page that triggers a Data Loss Prevention (DLP) rule, the watermark appears, clearly identifying the content as confidential. 

This visual reminder can help increase security awareness, and can help prevent unauthorized sharing. For example, an organization might configure watermarks to appear on web pages containing sensitive financial data or confidential product designs. 

The watermark adds an extra layer of protection, making it clear to users that the information they are viewing is protected and should not be shared freely. You can learn how to set up watermarks here.

Advanced threat detection with URL filtering

URL filtering is a cornerstone of any secure enterprise browser. Chrome Enterprise Premium now offers an optional audit-only mode for URL filtering, allowing administrators to monitor activity in managed corporate browsers and user profiles without blocking access to sites in the filter. The audit-only mode provides valuable insights into risky user behavior and security threats, and can be used by enterprises to refine URL filtering policies, block malicious sites, and educate employees about safe browsing practices. 

Simplified security management with Chrome Security Insights

Chrome Security Insights simplifies security monitoring for Chrome Enterprise Core customers, providing insight into potential threats. With a few clicks, administrators can:

• Enable Chrome Enterprise Connectors and security event logging automatically;

• Activate 50 common DLP detectors to scan for sensitive data transfers; and,

• Generate insightful reports on users, domains, and data types involved in high-risk activities.

Chrome Security Insights reduces the effort required to set up and manage DLP rules, which can help administrators identify and address potential insider risk and data exfiltration events more quickly. This proactive approach to security can help organizations stay ahead of threats and minimize the impact of potential breaches. 

By simplifying security management, Chrome Security Insights empowers IT teams to focus on other critical tasks while maintaining a high level of protection. This feature is currently in preview, and it is easy for any organization using Chrome Enterprise Core to turn it on directly in the Google Admin console home page.
