CIS has released a new Google Chrome Group Policy Benchmark v1.0.0, which replaces the CIS Google Chrome Benchmark v3.0.0. Until now, the standalone Chrome benchmark was being used for Group Policy-based implementations as well. With this release, we have moved to the dedicated Google Chrome Group Policy Benchmark (v1.0.0).

This should be considered a completely new benchmark, as the recommendations and sections have been realigned to match the ADMX/ADML layout in the Group Policy Editor, and the structure, titles, and organization of controls have been significantly revised.

    ●    Both analysis and remediation checks are included.

    ●    Some of the checks allow you to use the parameterized setting to enable customization for              compliance evaluation. Note that parameterization and remediation actions require the creation of a custom site.

Actions to take:

● To subscribe to the above site, you can use the License Overview Dashboard to enable and gather the site. Note that you must be entitled to the BigFix Compliance product, and you must be using BigFix version 9.5 and later.

● If you use custom sites, update your custom sites accordingly to use the latest content. You can synchronize your content by using the Synchronize Custom Checks wizard.
