Surfing the Internet safely
Whether in administration, critical infrastructure or business, TightGate-Pro offers verified browser separation that provides effective protection against data theft and manipulation. The consistent separation of the internet and internal systems keeps work processes stable and uninterrupted, while even complex cyber attacks cannot reach your network.
TightGate-Pro
Secure browsing made simple
TightGate-Pro provides users with the familiar Firefox and Chrome browsers within a secure virtual environment. Browsing, working, and online communication function just as they would on a local computer, ensuring a seamless user experience.
All audio and video output is displayed directly on the user’s monitor and speakers, while the browser itself runs safely on a remote server, fully isolated from the internal network.
This delivers the look and feel of a standard browser – with the added benefit of enhanced network security and data protection.
