Remote Browser Isolation
Use Remote Browser Isolation (RBI) to secure and isolate potentially malicious code
and content away from the end user's device.
Browser and web-based attacks are continuously evolving, resulting in security
challenges for many enterprises. Web browsers, being a major entry point for malware
to penetrate networks, pose a significant security risk to enterprises, prompting
the increasing need to protect networks and devices from zero day attacks. Highly
regulated industries, such as government and financial institutions, also require
browser traffic isolation as a mandatory compliance requirement.
While most enterprises want to block 100% of attacks by using network security and
endpoint security methods, such a goal might not be realistic. Most attacks start
with the compromise of an endpoint that connects to malicious or compromised sites
or by opening malicious content from those sites. An attacker only needs one miss to
take over an endpoint and compromise the network. When this happens, the
consequences of that compromise and the impact to your organization can be
damaging.
Remote Browser Isolation (RBI) creates a no-code
execution isolation environment for a user's local browser, so that no website code
and files are executed on their local browser. Unlike other isolation solutions, RBI
uses next-generation isolation technologies to deliver near-native experiences for
users accessing websites without compromising on security.
RBI is a service that isolates and transfers all browsing activity away from the
user's managed devices and corporate networks to an outside entity such as Prisma
Access, which secures and isolates potentially malicious code and content within
their platform. Natively integrated with Prisma Access, RBI allows you to apply
isolation profiles easily to existing security policies. Isolation profiles can
restrict many user controls such as copy and paste actions, keyboard inputs, and
sharing options like file uploading, downloading, and printing files to keep
sensitive data and information secure. All traffic in isolation undergoes analysis
and threat prevention provided by Cloud-Delivered Security Services (CDSS) such as
Advanced Threat Prevention, Advanced WildFire, Advanced URL Filtering, DNS Security,
and SaaS Security.
