What happens when enterprise policy will prohibit the user from installing extensions? At this point I see requirement to install extensions for screen sharing only as a mechanism to penalize small new providers vs large providers. For the large established providers extensions would be much more likely to be pre-installed/approved by the enterprise IT team. It is much less likely to happen for smaller new services. I have mentioned earlier that extension mechanism serves no purpose at all as far as security is concerned. The risk that attacker can share users browser via a rouge WebEx ot GoToMeeting session is no different then the risk that he can share users browser via a custom session he have created. _____________ Roman Shpount On Wed, Jan 15, 2014 at 5:34 PM, Justin Uberti <juberti@google.com> wrote: > Blocking HTTPS makes it impossible to share a Google Docs doc or > presentation > > Look, this is a hard problem, and we've come to a point where use of the > screensharing feature in Chrome requires jumping through a hoop (i.e. > installing an extension), but not a ridiculously difficult one.
