  I am really surprised they don't have a full blown EDR/EPP solution yet. From the title I thought that would be what this is about but from the content it doesn't look like it.

  This feels like a reaction to Edge beginning to eat the enterprise market.

  The problem is convincing anyone to buy on to gamble if this product will exist by the end of the contract.

  I haven’t looked closer, but it’ll be very funny if this is fully GPO driven when Microsoft is already pushing for cloud configuration via Intune instead.

  Does this compete directly with Island? And what does the Google offering give that Island doesn’t and vice versa?

  That's quite a lot of corporate fluff to announce 4 bullet points.

  Google acting like they just invented Group Policy, which turns 25 this year.

  I don't want Google as my anti-malware vendor thank you. The reason half these security problems exist is because Chrome is so bloated.

  IE seems simple and efficient by comparison.
