Introducing Cloudflare Browser Isolation beta

What's this blog post about?

Cloudflare has introduced a beta version of its Browser Isolation service, which aims to improve web browsing safety by running browser sessions in sandboxed environments within Cloudflare data centers. This approach is designed to keep threats away from the user's device while maintaining the convenience and flexibility of a web browser. The service sends only draw commands to render the webpage, making it compatible with any HTML5 compliant browser. By hosting managed browsers only milliseconds away on their network, Cloudflare aims to provide a native browser experience remotely without compatibility issues introduced by scrubbing HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
