BYOD Support

The BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) Support feature enables employees to securely access corporate web resources from their personal devices without compromising security standards. Through secure browser isolation and controlled access policies, employees can confidently use their own devices for work-related browsing while ensuring sensitive company data remains protected. This capability solves the common challenge of balancing flexible work environments with stringent security policies.

Incident Logs

Incident Logs provide comprehensive documentation of all detected security incidents within the Secure Browser environment. They include relevant details such as timestamps, event types, affected URLs, user information, and actions taken in response. This feature supports swift incident response investigations by providing clear evidence trails that simplify root-cause analysis and facilitate compliance reporting.

Logging & Reporting

The Logging & Reporting feature maintains detailed records of all browser activities across your organization's user base. Administrators can easily generate customized reports to analyze usage patterns, policy adherence, security incidents, or compliance status. By having structured logging and easy-to-understand reports readily available, IT teams can quickly identify issues and demonstrate compliance with internal policies or external regulations.

Monitoring

The Monitoring feature continuously tracks user activity within Amazon WorkSpaces Secure Browser in real-time. Administrators receive immediate alerts regarding suspicious or unauthorized browsing activities, enabling rapid response to potential threats. By proactively monitoring browser usage, organizations can swiftly detect policy violations or security incidents, thus reducing response times and minimizing risk exposure.

Policy Enforcement

Amazon WorkSpaces Secure Browser includes robust Policy Enforcement capabilities, allowing IT administrators to consistently apply and enforce specific browsing policies across the organization. Administrators can define allowed or restricted websites, manage user permissions, and set browsing rules tailored to organizational security requirements. This feature directly addresses the challenge of maintaining compliance and reducing security risks associated with unrestricted internet access.

Real-time Collaboration

Real-time Collaboration allows multiple users to securely share browsing sessions simultaneously for improved teamwork and productivity. Users can collaboratively review websites or web-based content in a secure environment without exposing sensitive data outside the protected workspace. This capability addresses business challenges related to remote collaboration by facilitating seamless teamwork while maintaining strict data security standards.

URL Filtering

URL Filtering enables administrators to precisely control website access by categorizing URLs and applying predefined or custom filtering policies. Organizations can selectively restrict access to inappropriate or unsafe sites based on category or individual URLs. This helps prevent accidental exposure to malicious content and ensures compliance with internal usage guidelines or regulatory requirements.

Web Gateway

The Web Gateway feature serves as a secure intermediary between user devices and internet resources. It inspects web traffic, identifying and mitigating potential threats before they reach end users. By utilizing advanced threat detection technologies, the Web Gateway protects your organization from malware, phishing, and other web-based attacks, thereby significantly reducing cybersecurity risks and enhancing overall network security.

Web Traffic Reporting

Web Traffic Reporting provides administrators and managers with detailed visibility into employees' web browsing behaviors and patterns. Comprehensive reports enable tracking of site visits, bandwidth usage, and user activity trends. This insight helps organizations identify productivity concerns or potential security risks early on, empowering decision-makers with actionable information to optimize performance and ensure secure browsing practices.
