How does Browser Isolation ensure content security?

Browser Isolation enhances content security by isolating the browser environment and streaming web content as images. This method ensures that any potentially malicious content accessed through the browser does not interact directly with the local machine or its resources. Instead, the content is rendered on a secure server, and only the visual representation is sent to the user's device. This effectively prevents malware and other harmful elements from reaching the endpoint, as any harmful scripts or files remain contained and cannot compromise the user's system.

This approach is particularly effective in maintaining security because it eliminates the risks associated with traditional browsing methods, such as downloading malicious software that could exploit vulnerabilities in the user's operating system or installed applications. By streaming content as images, any interaction with the web page is done in a controlled environment, ensuring that the user can view and interact with websites without exposing their local machine to threats.
