NinjaOne Browser Management
NinjaOne Browser Management extends endpoint management into the browser. It covers Chrome, Microsoft Edge, and Firefox on Windows, and runs from the NinjaOne agent and console you already use for patching, remediation, and backup.
Most work now happens in the browser, but most IT teams still manage it with GPOs, scripts, or nothing at all. Extensions are the biggest blind spot. Every one is effectively an unmanaged agent running inside the browser, and few tools can see, patch, or remove them.
In this video you will see how to inventory every installed extension across your managed devices, review the sites users are visiting, and enforce policy with native browser controls. That includes blocking extensions by ID, setting a default-deny extension policy, blocking websites and domains with a custom message, and scoping policy by organization if you are an MSP.
It is built for IT admins, endpoint teams, service desk leads, and MSPs who want browser visibility and control without adding another console, agent, or proxy.
Common questions about Browser Management from IT pros
Q: What is browser management, and what does NinjaOne Browser Management do?
A: Browser management is centrally controlling the browsers on your endpoints. NinjaOne Browser Management does this for Chrome, Edge, and Firefox on Windows by inventorying extensions, recording site visits, and enforcing extension and website policies through native browser policy.
Q: How do I see which extensions are installed across all our devices?
A: Extension inventory scans browser profiles on managed endpoints and lists every extension present, including built-in ones. Browser Activity also records unique site visits, kept for seven days.
Q: Does it work with our existing NinjaOne setup, or do I need another agent?
A: It runs through the NinjaOne agent already on your endpoints, so there is nothing new to deploy. If Chrome is already managed by Chrome Enterprise or Google Workspace, that tool keeps ownership and NinjaOne policy on that browser is ignored.
Q: Can it block a bad extension or website automatically?
A: Yes. You can block extensions by ID, set default-deny so anything not on your allow list is blocked, and block sites or domains with wildcards. Policy applies at browser restart or the next policy check, usually within about 90 minutes.
Q: How is this different from GPOs or scripts?
A: GPOs and scripts push static settings and cannot show what is actually installed or browsed. Browser Management combines extension inventory, site history, and enforcement in one place. It does not send real-time alerts yet, and URL policies are limited to about 1,000 entries.
