SURF Security and Kandji Partner to Deliver Advanced Zero-Trust Browser for Enterprise Security.
In today's evolving threat landscape, businesses heavily rely on browser-based applications to conduct their daily operations. However, these applications remain a primary target for attackers. In 2021 alone, there were over 500 million malware attacks specifically aimed at compromising browsers.
To empower businesses with robust protection against browser-based threats, including tools like Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) and Remote Browser Isolation (RBI), SURF Security and Kandji have forged a strategic partnership to introduce SURF Security's cutting-edge Zero-Trust browser as an auto-app within the Kandji platform.
This integration streamlines the deployment of SURF Security's Zero-Trust browser, enabling businesses to safeguard their employees' activities with a simple and seamless click.
SURF Security's Zero-Trust browser is meticulously engineered to provide comprehensive defense against a wide array of threats, including malware, phishing, and data exfiltration. It utilizes an advanced zero-trust architecture and sandboxing to securely isolate users from device and web threats while operating on the endpoint.
The browser boasts a suite of advanced security features, including:
- Isolation: Cutting-edge web isolation technology creates a secure barrier between the browser and the underlying operating system, preventing malware and threats from spreading to the user's device.
- Encrypted Traffic: All communication between the Zero-Trust browser and the internet is encrypted, ensuring the privacy and integrity of sensitive data, even when traversing untrusted networks.
- Content Inspection: The browser actively scans and inspects web content in real-time, leveraging advanced threat intelligence to identify and block malicious websites, phishing attempts, and other harmful content that could compromise security.
- Adaptive Access Controls: Users are required to authenticate themselves before accessing websites or applications, with the browser also performing device posture checks to ensure compliance with security policies. This layered approach adds an extra level of protection against unauthorized access and potential data breaches.
- Data Leakage Prevention (DLP): The browser incorporates robust DLP mechanisms, allowing businesses to define and enforce policies that prevent sensitive data from being leaked or transmitted inappropriately. It can detect and block sensitive information such as credit card numbers, social security numbers, or intellectual property, reducing the risk of data breaches.
- Download and Upload Management: The browser includes advanced controls for managing file downloads and uploads. It can scan downloaded files in real-time for malware, block suspicious file types, and enforce policies to prevent unauthorized or risky file transfers.
- Comprehensive Logging and Reporting: The Zero-Trust browser generates detailed logs and reports on user activities, providing IT teams with valuable insights into browsing behavior, security events, and potential threats. This information facilitates proactive monitoring, incident response, and compliance auditing.
- Malware Protection: The browser integrates advanced anti-malware mechanisms, leveraging real-time threat intelligence to detect and block malicious files and downloads, mitigating the risk of malware infections.
- URL Filtering: The browser incorporates URL filtering capabilities to restrict access to known malicious websites and suspicious domains, reducing the chances of users inadvertently visiting harmful sites.
