Yes, I inherited the non-ESR install.  We will be 100% ESR by end of the year 
when the last Win7 system is retired.

Indeed, the policy can be used to disable DoH and please keep in mind that DoH 
is not being deployed on ESR.

enterprise policy to disable it. Administrators can also add exceptions, if 
they like DoH but it can break specific sites (e.g. because of split-horizon)

Re: [Mozilla Enterprise] Firefox Configuration Confusion - Need to Secure Firefox

2019-09-10 Thread Eddie Rowe
The DNS over HTTPS issue just highlights the need to secure Firefox and not 
accept some of Mozilla’s decisions that were made as defaults and to prevent 
employees from changing some settings.  We planned on hardening Firefox in the 
Fall, but now we have to stop and try to sort things out because of business 
decisions being made by Mozilla that contradict previous statements made when 
the UK government was up in arms about the feature.  The biggest issue I am 
having is that Firefox seems to not have much of a mindshare among security 
professionals so guidelines are very old and prior to updates being made.

Agreed, for those of us who have been managing ESR in our environment it's not 
too bad, but for someone just stepping into the fold, it could become a 
roadblock of red tape... Google's approach is consistent and the templates 
don't change every 5 minutes.

However, keep in mind Eddie, that Mozilla has been doing actual admx/adml 
templates for little over a year now, so we're sort of the guineapig in all of 
this.

Back then, all you had were those ini's and autoconfig files and other tools to 
configure FF.

At the end of the day, Mozilla is a much smaller group than Google Inc and 
they're doing the best they can to help out enterprise users.

Speaking of other tools, check with Mike Kaply, he's got something you may be
