Zero-trust browser: FAQs

What is a zero trust browser?

Zero trust browsers embody the principles of zero trust security, prioritizing strong identity verification, robust encryption, and strict access controls to protect against potential data breaches and unauthorized access to sensitive information.

Zero trust browsers operate under the assumption that threats may come from both within and outside your network. To counter this, they require authentication for every user and device accessing network resources, regardless of their location.

What are the advantages of zero trust browsing?

Enhanced security is arguably the biggest benefit of zero trust browsing, protecting you against threats in real time. Using a zero trust browser can also reduce the surface of attacks, minimizing the impact on your organization. You can even implement granular access control to protect your organization and its data from both internal and external threats.

Can a zero trust browser replace a VPN?

You can technically use a zero trust browser to replace a VPN, but you can also use a VPN in conjunction with Chrome for an added layer of security. Zero trust browsers protect against web-based threats while VPNs secure network traffic while providing remote access to your internal resources. Using both a VPN and zero trust browser can yield excellent results.

Can I integrate a zero trust browser with my existing security infrastructure?
