What is Remote Browser Isolation

KeeperPAM remote browser isolation records provide secure access to internal and cloud-based web applications through a protected browser, embedded within the vault. This browser is projected visually from the Keeper Gateway through the Keeper Vault, isolating the session and providing zero-trust access.

Features Available

The PAM Remote Browser resource supports the following features:

  • Zero-trust Connections over http:// and https:// websites

  • Session recording

  • Sharing access without sharing credentials

  • Autofill of linked credentials and 2FA codes

  • URL AllowList patterns

  • Navigation bar

Connecting to the protected web application requires only that the Keeper Gateway has access to the target website. The Keeper Vault operates independently and does not require direct connectivity to the website, leveraging Keeper's zero-trust network access model to securely manage access through the Gateway. See the network architecture diagram for more details.

Creating a Remote Browser Isolation Record

Prior to creating a PAM Remote Browser, make sure you have already created a PAM Configuration. The PAM Configuration contains information of your target infrastructure while the PAM Remote Browser contains information about the target web application and associated access rules.

  • Click on Create New

  • Select "Connection"

  • On the prompted window:

    • Select "New Record"

    • Select the Shared Folder you want the record to be created in
