Firefox 60 “Quantum” was launched today as the next ESR (Extended Support Release) series of the widely-used open-source and cross-platform web browser, ready for deployments in enterprise environments thanks to a new policy engine, as well as Group Policy support that helps IT professionals easily configure the browser using a cross-platform JSON file or Windows Group Policy. Mozilla revealed all of the new features of Firefox 60, which include redesigned Cookies and Site Storage section in Preferences to make it more easy for users to control third-party cookies, a new “Title Bar” option in the Customize panel for Linux users to display or hide page titles in the bar at the top of the web browser, as well as improved WebRTC audio playback and performance on Linux platforms.
