## Enforce Edge in-browser when accessing business apps
86+
Administrators who understand the power of Edge in-browser protection, can require their users to use Edge when accessing corporate resources.
87+
A primary reason is security, since the barrier to circumventing session controls using Edge is much higher than with reverse proxy technology.
88+
89+
Admin experience
90+
The feature is controlled through the following settings:
91+
M365 Defender > Settings > Cloud Apps > Edge for Business protection > Enforce usage of Edge for business
92+
93+
The following options are available:
94+
- Do not enforce (default)
95+
- Allow access only from Edge
96+
- Enforce access from Edge when possible
97+
98+
Admins have the option to apply policies on all devices or only on unmanaged devices.
99+
100+
**Allow access only from Edge** means that access to the business application, scoped to session policies, can only be obtained via the Edge browser.
101+
102+
**Enforce access from Edge when possible** means that users should use Edge to access the application if their context permits, but if not, they may use a different browser to access the protected application.
103+
104+
For example:
105+
If a user is subject to a policy that does not align with in-browser protection capabilities (such as, 'Protect file upon download'), OR
106+
the Operating System is incompatible (for instance, Android).
107+
In that scenario, because the user lacks control over the context, they may opt to use a different browser.
108+
If the policies applicable to him allow it and the operating system is compatible (Windows 10, 11, macOS), then he is required to utilize Edge.
