Manage the Chrome Enterprise connector to Symantec Endpoint DLP

As an admin, you can use the Google Admin console to connect Chrome directly with Symantec Endpoint DLP and check for sensitive data. This gives additional stability to the browser as well as the Symantec agent and removes the need to deploy and manage the Symantec Chrome extension. 

The Symantec Endpoint DLP Integration with Chrome Enterprise Setup Guide document guides you through the process of setting up the integration between Chrome browser and Symantec DLP.
