Cato partners with RBI leader Authentic8 to improve user productivity without increasing risk
At the RSA Conference 2023, Cato Networks, provider of , announced the addition of Cato Remote Browser Isolation (RBI) to its Cato SASE Cloud platform. With , enterprises can deliver RBI to all users worldwide in minutes, allowing them to access unclassified websites and applications, without compromising their security.
IT teams face a dilemma in the grey area of new, unclassified, websites: block them to achieve security or allow them to improve user productivity. 鈥淐ato has been consistently innovative in helping customers achieve the balance between security and user productivity,鈥� said Ofir Agasi, Vice President of Product Management at Cato Networks.
鈥淲ith Cato RBI integrated into Cato SASE Cloud, we extend that balance by allowing users to browse unclassified websites securely.鈥�
Enabling Users to Browse Uncategorized and Potentially Malicious Websites Safely聽
With new websites appearing all the time, users inevitably need to access uncategorized sites. Too often, though, uncategorized sites are the source of cyber-attacks. Blocking them leaves users frustrated and unproductive but enabling them increases corporate risk.
Cato RBI addresses the problem of allowing access to potentially malicious websites by loading them in an isolated browser remotely from the user’s device. A safe version of the site is then streamed to the user鈥檚 device without the site鈥檚 original code. Security and productivity remain intact.
Cato RBI provides protection against a wide range of browser-based attacks such as unintended downloads of malware and ransomware, malicious ads, cross-site scripting (XSS), browser vulnerabilities, malicious and exploited plug-ins, phishing attacks, and more.
Cato Partners with Authentic8 for Their Proven, Cloud-native, and Best-in-Class RBI Technology
To deliver the most reliable and secure RBI technology, Cato decided to partner with Authentic8, a world leader in the field of RBI. Authenic8鈥檚 RBI engine is cloud-native and globally available, making the integration with Cato SASE Cloud reliable, consistent, and completely transparent to Cato customers.
鈥淪eamlessly delivering isolated web access triggered by risk context is exactly what the market is asking for. Rigid solutions that require installing dedicated browsers or changing users’ workflows fail to scale in today’s decentralised IT environment,” said Miguel Ramos, Authentic8’s Head of Product. “We’re delighted Cato Networks has selected Silo’s cloud-native isolation API as the foundational browsing technology for its customers.鈥�
