Add a Chromebook Specific Policy

Add a Chromebook-specific policy to Umbrella and protect all Chromebook devices connected to your network. Once added, place this Chromebook-specific policy at the top of your policies list so that it is evaluated first. This ensures that this Chromebook-specific policy is applied to your Chromebooks before any other policy is evaluated. For more information about adding a policy, see Add a Policy.

Note: To maintain end-user privacy when Chromebooks are connected at remote locations, you can also disable Content Logging and include only security-related events in your reporting.

  1. Click Next and continue through the policy wizard until you are prompted to save it. For more information, see Add a Policy.
    Note: The Custom block page, Bypass Users, and Bypass Codes features are not supported by the Chromebook client. Currently the user is allowed to visit a site that should be blocked, and the result is in some cases erroneously visible in Reports as blocked.

  1. Give your policy a good meaningful name and click Save.
    Your policy is automatically applied to Chromebooks.
