We’re going to go out on a limb here and say that if you didn’t see this feature coming you are probably not tech savvy. It’s a no-brainer that Microsoft would include their latest version of their web browser in Windows Phone 8, but we digress.
Windows Phone 8 will include Internet Explorer 10 as a default browser, and the new mobile browser experience includes Javascript and HTML5 support. Microsoft touts that IE10 will see four times faster performance gains in Javascript, and two times the HTML5 support as Windows Phone 7.
Internet Explorer 10 for Windows Phone will also include a SmartScreen antiphishing filter. The phishing filter will provide increased security for the mobile browser by blocking harmful websites from access.
More Enterprise Support
Windows Phone 8 will also include enterprise security support to allow IT admins to better monitor employee devices. Some of the relevant security options include secure boot support, bitlocker data encryption, business controlled app distribution and improved integration with software management solutions.
Improving even further on the enterprise support, Windows Phone 8 will also work with a new “Company Hub” feature. The Microsoft Company Hub will allow businesses to create and customize a network that can send alerts to employees, recommend mobile apps and display relevant news. Microsoft demoed their own Company Hub to show off how the service worked, and Microsoft employees were able to update a profile picture and access employee related documents like vacation requests and HR forms.
