Remote Browser Isolation (RBI)

Cato RBI can be quickly enabled in just a few clicks for all locations and users, without any additional hardware or software to deploy. Access to websites that are uncategorized will automatically be isolated in a remote session, streaming graphical representation of the web content to the user’s browser.

Web browsing poses a significant risk since code is executed locally on the user’s device, potentially allowing the delivery of malware, credential theft, or other malicious activity. RBI isolates website code from the endpoint by rendering the site in a containerized environment that is destroyed completely at the end of the session. This process happens seamlessly and transparently to the user and prevents malicious code from reaching the device, allowing administrators an alternative to outright blocking uncategorized sites.

Admins need to understand internet access patterns and risk to track and monitor which sites are loaded with RBI, and which users use it most frequently. Cato enables admins to easily filter the unified event log, and track RBI events based on destination, user identity, volume, and other metrics. RBI policies can then be fine-tuned to match the enterprise specific needs. Using a dedicated tool in the Cato Management Applications, admins can manually load any site with RBI for further investigation and troubleshooting.
