Imagine you're in a meeting room equipped with a high-tech touch board, like the Surface Hub 3. These boards are essentially large tablets mounted on the wall, designed to make meetings more interactive and engaging. Now, these boards have a new feature: a private browsing mode using Microsoft Edge. Think of it like having a private browsing session on your personal computer, but now it's available on these large touch screens.
This means that during a meeting, if you need to quickly look up information or access a specific web application, you can do so directly on the board without leaving any browsing history behind. It's like using an incognito window on your browser at home, where your browsing activities aren't saved. This is particularly useful for maintaining privacy and security, especially in a business setting where sensitive information might be accessed.
IT administrators have the ability to set policies for this browsing feature, ensuring that it is used safely and securely. They can control which websites can be accessed and monitor usage to prevent any potential security risks. It's similar to how a parent might set parental controls on a home computer to ensure their children are browsing safely.
Overall, this update makes the touch boards more versatile and useful during meetings, allowing for seamless access to online resources while maintaining a focus on security and privacy.
