ChromeOS Administrator: Professional ChromeOS Administrator

To install a client certificate on a ChromeOS device for corporate Wi-Fi connectivity, it's necessary to force-install the custom extension containing the certificate. This ensures the extension is installed and activated on the device, enabling it to use the certificate for authentication. Here's how it works:

Custom Extension: The admin creates or obtains a custom extension that includes the client certificate.

Force-Installation: Using the Google Admin console, the admin configures a policy to force-install the extension on ChromeOS devices within the organization.

Device Activation: Once the device receives the policy, the extension is automatically installed and activated, even if the user doesn't manually add it.

Wi-Fi Authentication: The installed extension allows the device to use the client certificate for authentication when connecting to the corporate Wi-Fi network.

Option A is incorrect because guest mode installations are not persistent and won't apply the certificate to the device's Wi-Fi settings.

Option B is incorrect because distributing through the Chrome Web Store is not necessary for a custom extension intended for internal use.

Option D is incorrect because while the certificate encoding is important, it's not the primary step for enabling Wi-Fi authentication.

ChromeOS is designed with multiple layers of security to protect against malware and viruses:

Read-only file system: Most of the operating system is stored in a read-only partition, making it difficult for malware to modify critical files.

Verified boot: Ensures the integrity of the operating system during bootup, preventing tampering by unauthorized software.

Sandboxing: Isolates different processes and websites, limiting the potential damage of any malware that manages to get through.

Automatic updates: Regularly delivers security patches and updates to address vulnerabilities.

While ChromeOS doesn't come with traditional antivirus software, its built-in security features provide robust protection against most threats.

Device off hours:This setting allows you to specify times when the device cannot be used,effectively restricting access to certain hours.

Family Link accounts:Family Link is a parental control app that allows you to manage a child's account and device usage.By requiring Family Link accounts,you can enforce sign-in restrictions for younger users.

Other options are incorrect because:

A:Single sign-on (SSO) redirection simplifies sign-in for authorized users,but doesn't inherently restrict access.

C:User Data (Ephemeral) controls whether user data is saved locally,but doesn't restrict sign-in.

Zero-touch enrollment (ZTE) automates the device enrollment process when users first power on their ChromeOS devices. Before you can enable ZTE, you need to determine the organizational unit (OU) where the devices should be placed during enrollment. This is crucial because different OUs can have different policies and configurations applied to them.

Plan Your OU Structure:If you haven't already,create a well-organized OU structure in your Google Admin console that reflects your organization's hierarchy and device management needs.

Select the Target OU:Choose the specific OU where you want the ZTE-enrolled devices to reside.Consider factors like department,location,or device type when making your decision.

Once you've identified the appropriate OU, you can proceed with creating a zero-touch enrollment token and associating it with that OU. This will ensure that newly enrolled devices are automatically placed in the correct OU and inherit the desired policies.
