In brief

Microsoft Edge: Work Search Banner for Google

What the source says

When a user performs a search on google.com from a work profile, Microsoft Edge can detect whether organization-specific results are available for that query. When relevant results are found, a banner is shown with a link to explore those work results with Microsoft 365 Copilot. This builds on the existing experience already available on Bing and extends it to Google, helping users seamlessly access work-related information regardless of their search engine. Admins can control access to this feature using the EdgeWorkSearchBannerEnabled policy.
