Data boundary controls

With granular but easy control over copy/paste, screen captures, uploads and downloads, and data redaction capabilities.

Protect your applications

You need to provide secure access to your important business applications to those that need it, while also securing them from potential hacks and attacks. Sophos Protected Browser integrates Sophos ZTNA and SaaS app controls for a seamless and secure experience.

ZTNA makes your apps invisible to the internet while providing secure access to all your workers on and off the network.
ZTNA is integrated into Sophos Protected Browser for a seamless experience including direct support for SSH and RDP.
SaaS app controls also enable you to determine who has access to important applications you rent.
Device posture assessment and Synchronized Security support can be used in policies to temporarily block access to important applications for compromised devices.
