Healthcare is adopting AI quickly, and it's moving beyond chat. Clinical teams are starting to use AI agents that draft documentation, summarize charts, navigate web apps, and complete multi-step tasks on a clinician's behalf. Many of these agents work in the same place—the browser. As electronic health records (EHRs) and clinical apps move to the web, the browser is where clinicians, applications, patient data, and AI services meet. When clinicians or agents act inside a session, security teams need clear control over what they can access.
Healthcare systems frequently adopt a multi-vendor AI strategy, a flexibility that should be fully supported. Whether clinicians are using Gemini™ or an array of other web-based AI tools and extensions, Chrome Enterprise Premium secures data across the board to:
- Guard sensitive data: Advanced DLP controls restrict unauthorized copying and pasting, form submission, printing, and screen capture of sensitive data—preventing patient data from leaking into unapproved AI prompts or browser extensions.
- Maintain full operational visibility: Granular reporting and visibility into browser activity, extension usage, and data transfers help security teams uncover shadow AI and maintain internal oversight.
- Govern extensions and web AIs consistently: Security policies and extension controls apply directly at the browser layer, so IT teams can manage permissions, block risky extensions, and enforce guardrails across every AI service without needing a separate harness for each tool.
Since we introduced new healthcare integrations in May, Chrome Enterprise has continued to invest in the healthcare ecosystem. Today we're sharing the next set of milestones that bring Chrome Enterprise to more clinical endpoints.
Chrome Enterprise is now compatible with IGEL® OS
As healthcare organizations accelerate the adoption of web-based clinical applications and AI-powered workflows, securing both the browser and the endpoint has become increasingly important. To address this, Chrome Enterprise is now compatible with IGEL® OS and soon available in the IGEL® Marketplace, allowing healthcare IT to easily deploy and manage the browser across IGEL OS™ endpoints, including shared workstations, nursing stations, and clinical carts.
This collaboration combines Google's enterprise-grade browser management and security capabilities with the IGEL Adaptive Secure Endpoint Platform,™ providing an immutable, centrally-managed endpoint foundation designed to reduce the attack surface and simplify IT operations. Through the IGEL App Portal and IGEL Universal Management Suite (UMS), organizations can streamline application deployment and endpoint governance, while the Google Admin console provides centralized browser policy and extension management.
Native browsing for flexible clinical endpoints with Citrix® UniconOS
Through our expanded collaboration with Citrix, healthcare systems can now run Chrome Enterprise natively on Citrix UniconOS endpoints. Clinicians get a fast, familiar experience on any device, while IT gains another flexible option for adding secure access and data protections across their clinical environments.
Expanding collaboration with Omnissa® for enhanced device trust
Many healthcare organizations use Omnissa Workspace ONE® and Omnissa Horizon® to manage, secure and deliver critical clinical applications. We're expanding our collaboration with Omnissa to bring zero-trust security and device posture assessment to healthcare environments. Building on May's integration, organizations can verify device health before clinicians reach critical applications.
Optimizing Epic® Workflows at the point of care
Beyond endpoint expansion, we are introducing new Chrome Enterprise capabilities that streamline clinic workflows, including support for silent printing and PDF updates for Epic® Hyperspace® for the web. This allows clinicians to route essential orders and wristbands directly to authorized printers, while native PDF rendering keeps protected health information strictly isolated within the active, managed session.
Scaling clinical technology with confidence
Together, these updates give IT and security teams the confidence to say yes to modern clinical technology, supporting the patient care experience—without giving up critical protections and control. As healthcare organizations continue deploying enterprise AI solutions like Gemini or managing a fast-growing ecosystem of third-party AI web apps and browser extensions, Chrome Enterprise provides the unified security, Data Loss Prevention (DLP), and governance layer needed to empower care teams with confidence.
