What it is

Cato Enterprise Browser adds browser-based secure access to internet, SaaS, and private applications through Cato Universal ZTNA. It supports employees, contractors, and partners, including people using personal or unmanaged devices. Access can use the Cato client, clientless access, a browser extension, or private application access; Cato says clientless BYOD and third-party access through its browser controls requires no client installation. A single policy engine and management console apply across access methods, users, and devices. In-browser protection includes threat prevention, application and data protection, and continuous inspection. AI security functions cover discovery of shadow AI, risk assessment of AI tools and interactions, and enforcement of AI-use policies. The browser is integrated into the Cato SASE Platform and shares its UZTNA policy, context, and management. Cato states the product is generally available and included at no additional charge with a Cato Platform UZTNA license, which is required. Listed platforms are extension, macOS, and Windows. Cato provides a customer support portal.
