Amazon WorkSpaces Secure Browser vs. Forcepoint Web Security

Amazon WorkSpaces Secure Browser is a fully managed, cloud-native service that enables secure access to internal websites, software-as-a-service (SaaS) applications, and the public internet. By streaming encrypted pixels from a remote browser session running in the AWS cloud to the user's local device, it ensures that sensitive corporate data never touches the end user's device, thereby mitigating the risk of unauthorized data exfiltration.

Forcepoint Web Security is a comprehensive solution designed to protect organizations from web-based threats, ensuring secure and efficient internet usage. It offers real-time content analysis to detect and block malware, viruses, and phishing attacks transmitted through web channels such as HTTP, HTTPS, and FTP.
