At the heart of RBI (Remote Browser Isolation) technology are two distinct rendering methods: Pixel Pushing and DOM Isolation.
While serving the same overall objective of isolating the browser from the user environment to enhance security, these approaches differ fundamentally in their operation and implications. Given the significant growth of cybersecurity in today's digital landscape, it's vital for businesses to have a clear understanding of these methods. In this article, we compare these two approaches according to key criteria to help inform your technology choice.
Pixel Pushing VS DOM Isolation
Unlike most traditional RBI solutions, which rely on rebuilding the Document Object Model (DOM) within the local browser, with a residual risk of malicious code execution, "Pixel Pushing" rendering technology offers a more secure approach. All code - whether HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Cookies or even document viewing - is executed in a remote environment, isolated from the user's local network. The final rendering is then transmitted as a video stream, offering a significant advantage in terms of security and user transparency.
VirtualBrowser specializes in pixel-based rendering with its innovative "Fast Pixel Rendering" solution, guaranteeing an unrivalled, fluid browsing experience. Not only does this approach enhance security, it also maintains a seamless user experience while guaranteeing optimal scalability.
