How it rolls out

From MDM to audit-ready in three stages

We've done this across hundreds of customers. The pattern is consistent.

  1. 01

    Connect your MDM

    Push PasteWarden to your managed Chrome / Edge fleet via your existing platform. Silent install.

  2. 02

    Pick a policy template

    HIPAA, PCI, source code, or client records. Apply to the relevant organisational units.

  3. 03

    Review the audit log

    Weekly digest to compliance, real-time dashboard for IT. Review and tune exceptions.

Add to Chrome Listing pending

PasteWarden deploys through MDM, not the Chrome Web Store. We issue a signed extension to your organisation after onboarding.

MDM deployment

Per-platform rollout instructions

Step-by-step for each of the three MDM platforms we see most. Others supported, contact us.

Jamf Pro (macOS)

For macOS fleets managed through Jamf Pro. Most common for professional-services firms and agencies.

  1. 1

    Download the PasteWarden PKG

    From your admin portal. Signed with your organisation's certificate: no additional approval needed.

  2. 2

    Create a Configuration Profile

    Computers → Configuration Profiles → New. Upload the PasteWarden plist from the same admin portal.

  3. 3

    Scope to computer groups

    Start with a pilot group: we recommend 30-50 people in your most-regulated department.

  4. 4

    Review overrides after 7 days

    The policy editor surfaces the top override reasons. Turn those into custom allow-lists or modified rules.

Microsoft Intune

For Windows and iOS fleets managed through Intune. Common for financial services and healthcare.

  1. 1

    Upload the PasteWarden MSI

    Intune → Apps → Windows apps → Add. Upload the MSI from your admin portal.

  2. 2

    Configure the Chrome/Edge force-install policy

    Under Configuration profiles, add the PasteWarden extension ID to the force-install list.

  3. 3

    Scope to device groups

    Staged rollout recommended. Start with the compliance team, expand to broader OUs after 7–14 days.

Google Workspace admin console

For Google Workspace-native organisations. Common for SaaS-first professional-services firms.

  1. 1

    Chrome management → Apps & extensions

    Devices → Chrome → Apps & extensions → Users & browsers.

  2. 2

    Add by extension ID

    Click + → Add from URL. Paste the extension ID from your onboarding email.

  3. 3

    Force Install and scope to OUs

    Set installation policy to Force Install. Scope to organisational units. No local admin rights required.
