What is Kasm Workspaces?

Streams workplace environments directly to a web browser, on any device and from any location.


Workspaces is a solution for remote browser isolation (RBI), containerized application streaming (CAS), virtualized desktop infrastructure (VDI) and desktop as a service (DaaS) that provides a remote desktop and remote work solution for distributed workforces. The Workspaces platform provides enterprise-class orchestration, data loss prevention (DLP), and web streaming technology to enable the delivery of containerized workloads to browsers.

Kasm uses open-source web-native container streaming technology to establish a modern devops delivery of Desktop as a Service (DaaS), application streaming, and browser isolation. Kasm is also a configurable platform, with a developer API that can be customized for a use-case at any scale. Workspaces can be deployed in the cloud (Public or Private), on-premise (Including Air-Gapped Networks), or in a hybrid configuration.

Kasm Workspaces was developed by a team of cybersecurity experts to meet the most demanding secure collaboration and remote workforce requirements of the US Government. The solution makes use of technology in container orchestration, browser rendering technology and devops pipelines in order to establish an architecture that is efficient, scalable and customizable. Workspaces provides a platform, rather than a service, so it is customizable to a user's unique requirements and includes a developer API so that it can be integrated with, rather than replace, existing applications and workflows.
