Remote Browser Isolation (RBI)

Safely isolate risky websites and personal applications, plus apply threat and data protection on file activity. RBI delivers seamless safe viewing and ensures no website code executes on end-user devices.

Prevent unknown web threats

RBI isolates uncategorized and risky websites as an option for Security Service Edge (SSE) and Next Gen Secure Web Gateway (SWG) solutions. Known safe sites are allowed, known bad sites are blocked, and risky websites are isolated for safe viewing all within one cloud platform, one console, and one policy engine.

Enable RBI with these solutions

Threat and data protection defense levels licensed for SWG, Next Gen SWG, or SSE apply to RBI file activity policy controls as an integrated platform with shared security services.
