Browser Isolation
A security technique that runs web browsing in a separate, sandboxed environment so malicious code never touches the real device.
Full Definition
Browser isolation is a cybersecurity architecture that executes all browser activity — rendering, script execution, and network requests — inside an isolated environment (a container, VM, or remote server) physically or logically separated from the user's endpoint. Only a safe visual stream is sent back to the user's screen. This means malware, exploits, and malicious scripts on web pages cannot escape into the local network. In the proxy and scraping industry, browser isolation is used by enterprise remote-browser infrastructure to run many browser sessions in the cloud without exposing worker machines to potentially hostile websites.
