or perceptible latency, even though the web content is being rendered in an isolated
environment outside of the corporate network.
A remote virtual browser is utilized to isolate the actual web browsing experience from the
endpoint device to eliminate the risk of encountering rogue links and files. Enterprises have the
flexibility to utilize any HTML5-based browser on any operating system or device.
The browsing session is executed inside a disposable container located in a remote “safe zone.”
It is then rendered in real-time and transmitted to the local browser, providing a native user
experience and ensuring that potential malware never reaches the endpoint. A pristine new
container is allocated for every remote browsing session and tab, and is discarded once that
session or tab is closed.
Browser isolation solutions provide a transparent solution for users without compromising
security, unlike the typical threat detection and remediation solutions currently on the market.
As organizations review their cybersecurity strategy, budget and workplan, browser isolation
can complement existing IT investments by offering an added security layer that is transparent
to users and unobtrusive to business operations.
