Chrome Enterprise rolls out AI agents and automation to streamline security management

Google LLC today launched new enhancements to Chrome Enterprise, the company’s enterprise version of its Chrome browser, designed to provide greater administrative and security control to information technology teams.

With the advent of artificial intelligence agentic workflows, Google released an open-source Model Context Protocol server that connects Chrome Enterprise application programming interfaces and exposes tools that agents can call.

This means that IT teams can now speed up management automation and issue resolution by offloading repetitive tasks associated with enterprise browsers. Security teams, likewise, can call up tools faster to deploy company policies across managed and unmanaged devices.

Using the Gemini command line or other chat interfaces, IT and security workers can describe their task in plain language and AI agents handle calling the correct tools. They can converse with agents just like talking to other employees and have them review data loss policy events, suggest improvements and implement safeguards.
