At the heart of Remote Browser Isolation (RBI) technology are two distinct rendering methods: Pixel Pushing and DOM Isolation.
While serving the same overall purpose of isolating the browser from the user environment to enhance security, these approaches fundamentally differ in how they work and what their implications are. Given the significant growth of cybersecurity in today's digital landscape, it is critical for businesses to fully understand these methods. In this article, we compare these two approaches according to key criteria in order to help inform your technological choice.
Pixel Pushing vs DOM Isolation
Unlike most traditional RBI solutions that rely on reconstructing 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 of the code — whether it's HTML, CSS, JavaScript, JavaScript, JavaScript, Cookies, or even document viewing — is executed in a remote environment, isolated from the user's local network. The final result is then transmitted in the form of a video stream offering a significant advantage in terms of security and user transparency.
VirtualBrowser has specialized in pixel rendering with its innovative “Fast Pixel Rendering” solution, guaranteeing an unparalleled and smooth browsing experience. Not only does this approach enhance security, but it also maintains a seamless user experience while ensuring optimal scalability.
