PolicyPak Adds Powerful New FireFox Configuration Management Abilities(PR Web Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) Philadelphia, PA (PRWEB) October 23, 2014 PolicyPak Software, the leader in application configuration management (ACM), today announced a revised and updated Pak for FireFox, giving admins improved Configuration Management abilities over settings for permissions, add-ons and certificates. Admins will now have the following new powers over FireFox settings with the revised Pak as part of the PolicyPak Suite: • Extensive control of user permissions, including popups, cookies, and desktop notifications • Add and remove Bookmarks from within Firefox • Ability to disable add-ons, either globally or on an individual basis • Dynamic management (Add/Removal) of security certificates to FireFox. With the updated FireFox Pak within PolicyPak Suite, available for all modern versions of FireFox, admins now have improved FireFox Configuration Management, and more control than ever over which settings their users have access to. For example, admins can now specify global settings for FireFox add-ons – or disable them entirely – across their entire network, knowing that PolicyPak Suite ensures those settings are delivered, enforced and locked-down, so users cannot work around them. The extended FireFox Pak works with both the On-Premise Edition of PolicyPak Suite – delivering, enforcing and locking down settings across an entire domain of user machines – as well as the Cloud Edition of PolicyPak Suite – delivering, enforcing and locking down settings for remote or non-domain-joined machines over the PolicyPak Cloud delivery service. Jeremy Moskowitz, PolicyPak founder and Group Policy MVP, said of the revised Pak: "We're responding to some of the most pressing admin needs when managing FireFox: control over popups, bookmarks and notifications; the ability to enable or disable add-ons either selectively or globally; and the ability to manage certificates on a dynamic basis. These new Application Configuration Management powers for FireFox will help administrators be more effective administrators." IT Admins and network administrators who want to try out the powerful new FireFox Pak functionalities within PolicyPak Suite can get a free trial by contacting PolicyPak at the PolicyPak Website, or by calling (800) 883-8002.
