Is this the ultimate browser for business?

Microsoft Edge for Business: The New Browser Built for Work Productivity and Security

Microsoft has done it again with the launch of Edge for Business - a brand-new browser designed specifically to meet the needs of modern businesses. Packed with advanced security and productivity features, Edge for Business is shaping up to be the perfect choice for work devices, whether they are managed by IT or unmanaged.

This new browser empowers employers to maintain control over their teams’ online activities without compromising user privacy. For companies with Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) policies, Edge for Business provides seamless separation of work and personal browsing, ensuring sensitive company data stays protected.

Key Features of Edge for Business

One of the standout capabilities of Edge for Business is its automatic separation of work and personal browsing into dedicated windows. Each environment maintains its own favourites, cache, and storage, eliminating accidental crossover between personal and professional data.

• Microsoft 365 and other work-related apps open automatically in the work browser window
• Personal activities like shopping or social media stay confined to the personal browser window

This clear division helps boost productivity while reducing security risks linked to data mixing on the same device.

Availability and What to Expect

Edge for Business is currently available in testing phases, with an official launch expected this autumn. Microsoft is actively working on additional features, including custom branding options to tailor the browser experience for your organisation.

Why Edge for Business Matters for Your Company

As more employees use the same device for both work and personal use, having a browser that smartly partitions these environments is essential. Edge for Business simplifies this process while providing enhanced security and user control, allowing your workforce to stay productive with peace of mind.
