FortiSASE Secure Web Gateway Extension

Allows for Google Workspace administrators to configure FortiSASE Secure Web Gateway access. The extension allows enabling or disabling proxy connectivity based on extension deployment configuration.

Users of this extension are members of a Google Workspace. The end user does not have control over which proxy is used, that is up to the Google Workspace administrator to determine and enforce via group policies.

FortiSASE provides cloud-delivered security and networking for remote users. Explicit proxy or Secure Web Gateway is one of the methods in which FortiSASE offers remote connectivity to its users. Typically users connect to the proxy via a PAC file configuration on their device. For administrators of Google Workspace or ChromeOS, there may be a desire for this proxy configuration to be done automatically via this extension.
