Firefox Enterprise 158 combines a Gecko-based browser with an on-premises management console, domain-level DLP and SIEM export. Initial sales focus on four European countries; ESR support and public pricing are not yet available.
The faster browser cadence is no longer just a published schedule. Firefox 155 is live and Chrome 153 has begun staged Stable rollout, leaving web teams with materially less time between major compatibility boundaries.
