It was nice knowing them.

> less than 10% of organizations have adopted a secure browser

Yes Gartner, let's invent a "secure enterprise browser", because there's too much interoperability on the web - there's definitely some business on splitting that up. I'm sure atlassian people love that idea.

Enterprise browsers are an existing category, and even Google offers an enterprise version of Chrome.

The idea of an enterprise browser is that all of the interoperability that has been built has been between the desktop and web servers. Most desktop browsers don't have many features that allow an organization to manage them, beyond managed policies which honestly aren't that great. For the most part, standard desktop browsers are a big hole in both inbound and outbound security.

Enterprise Chrome is just regular Chrome with remote policy enforcement. It isn't a different browser.

Which is what Enterprises need. They don't need their own version of Chrome, they need to ability to make changes to it like force Proxy, insert MiTM certs and various other Enterprise stuff.
