Enforcing browser addons

Modern browsers, apply certain restrictions to automatically enable browser addons without user intervention:

Google chrome

Google chrome extension is automatically enabled, but requires internet access, as Chrome is going to download the addon directly from Chrome store rather than using the locally installed version. This addon is compatible with Microsoft Edge.

Mozilla Firefox

There is a Mozilla firefox group policy to automatically enable any extension. Follow this link to get it:  https://github.com/mozilla/policy-templates/releases/download/v1.11/policy_templates_v1.11.zip

You can alternatively, add the following registry key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Mozilla\Firefox\Extensions\Locked\1 = "esso@soffid.com"

Internet Explorer (deprecated)

As well, there is a group policy for Internet Explorer. Please, follow this Microsoft link to get it: https://docs.microsoft.com/es-es/internet-explorer/ie11-deploy-guide/enable-and-disable-add-ons-using-administrative-templates-and-group-policy

The GUUID of Soffid ESSO group policy is {53252A52-D536-11DF-866D-5B82D67A00D1}
