Browsers are the primary gateway for enterprise file transfers. Users download files from vendor sites, upload to cloud storage, and transfer them through productivity suites and third-party sites on a daily basis. Left unmanaged, these everyday actions can expose the organization to malware from outside and data leaks from within. While Browser Security Plus' web filter governs which websites users can access, the file activity restriction feature goes a step further by giving IT admins precise control over what files can move in and out of the browser across all managed endpoints.
Browser Security Plus allows IT admins to define precise allow or block policies for file transfers in both directions, ensuring users can only interact with websites and file types approved by the organization.
With Browser Security Plus, you can allow/block uploads and downloads:
For added flexibility, Browser Security Plus also offers an exclusion function for both upload and download policies. This allows you to designate specific websites as trusted sources or approved destinations. Even if these sites fall under a restricted group, file transfers to and from them will always be permitted.
