Isolation — Part of the Modern Security Architecture

While attack volume has always been a challenge for individuals, nations, and organizations, it is not the real problem: the increasing quality of the attacks is the most damaging. And with your response to an aggressive cyberattack being imperative to your organization’s uptime, a proactive, robust isolation solution can change your incident response.

What is Isolation?

Browser isolation is a technology that solves the security challenge posed by executing active content on the endpoint with the concept of an isolated browser. This isolated web browser loads and runs pages, including all active embedded content, inside a contained environment in the cloud to isolate any potential browser infection away from the endpoint.

With an isolation solution, an isolated browser and the endpoint are kept separated using a secure channel with a highly restrictive protocol designed only to carry rendering updates to the endpoint, and user input to the isolated browser. This mode of browsing allows the browser isolation to defend against threats, including sophisticated zero-day exploits. By running untrusted content on the isolated browser and preventing it from exfiltrating data from the endpoint, browser isolation prevents attempts to bypass standard endpoint defenses.

With an isolation response for your entire workforce presents many clear benefits, including shrinking your attack surface, helping to reduce response times by reducing your exposed network, more accurate threat modeling to prioritize your response to the most impacted areas, and more insight into user behavior.
