Firefox already had pretty good policy management. Better than chrome safari. Edge has a lot built in but us still missing some options.
I’m not sure what improvement this will provide. I think they’re just offering it because chrome has it’s own paid enterprise offering.
As far as I can see it’ll be the same as Chrome so add DLP on top of the cloud managed configurations and I think I saw specific DLP for AI data exfiltration.
Mozilla, in the off chance someone in your company reads this. If you want to acquire customers you need to give some sort of community edition so that sysadmins like myself can poke around. I’m not filling up a form and requesting a demo just to see what your likely paid solution is, especially since the alternatives MSFT and Google provide are already built into their existing licenses so there’s no additional fee for us. I support the initiative, but I also wanna see what it’s about too.
You should write to them.with that. Its really good feedback
That entire thing with filling in a form and requesting a demo is ridiculous. So typical of Mozilla to copy the most cringe corporate shit they can find.
The company has no technical soul anymore. It’s all corporate bullshit and gender politics.
It’s like Microsoft now, just corporate shit.
This article is like 99% buzzwords, 1% intelligible. Here’s the main part:
Firefox Enterprise is built for organizations with strict security, governance, and compliance requirements. It pairs the Firefox browser, built on Mozilla’s independent Gecko engine, with a management console organizations can run on their own infrastructure. From that console, IT teams can centrally manage browser policy and access, govern how data moves through the browser and set controls around AI use.
Sounds like group policy
What is the Linux equivalent? SELinux?
Does this include profile sync?
Migrating profiles is a headache, and anything besides Edge isn’t supported at work.

wouldn’t be so sure about that. With the current europe-wide push to become less dependent on the US in the digital space, this is something that might actually become widespread in government agencies - the timing couldn’t be much better for this launch.
