[OPLINTECH] Google Chrome

Hi Mindy,

I manage Google Chrome through AD group policy objects. Since Chrome is a
Google product, there is no native AD GPO for controlling Chrome; however,
it is relatively trivial to import a GPO template. I use the extensive list
from the Chromium project to identify settings I wished to control with
group policy: http://www.chromium.org/ Google provides an admx template you
can import into your policy definitions (find by Googling). I use GPOs to
force install a list of extensions, and force Chrome to use more anonymous
settings. There is also a GPO setting to prevent users from installing
extensions at will. I've been very pleased with the management functionality
Google's admx provides.

Hope that helps!

For those that have Google Chrome on their patron machines.  How do you
block the Chrome extensions that allow minors to bypass your filtering?  
Do you maintain a blacklist/whitelist or just block all or no extensions?
Is there a GPO to do this at the domain level?

Thanks,
