Enterprise Security
Security and compliance for Browserbase.
Browserbase is secure infrastructure for automating browser-based workflows at scale. Built from the ground up with privacy, compliance, and enterprise-grade isolation in mind, Browserbase is trusted by leading companies handling highly sensitive data across finance, healthcare, and government sectors.
This document outlines the robust security architecture, compliance posture, and enterprise-grade deployment flexibility that makes Browserbase a reliable and secure choice for organizations with the strictest requirements.
Why Enterprises Trust Browserbase
Enterprise-Grade Compliance
- SOC 2 Type I Certified; SOC 2 Type II evaluation window in progress
- HIPAA Compliant: Business Associate Agreements (BAAs) available
- Comprehensive third-party penetration testing with successful results
- Full access to security documentation (e.g., auditor attestations, Compliance portal access) provided on request
Secure by Design
Zero Trust Browser Isolation
Browserbase follows a zero-trust architecture, assuming that any browser may be compromised. This design philosophy ensures comprehensive containment and minimizes risk.- Browser Isolation: Each browser runs in a dedicated VM, providing strong isolation at the hardware virtualization layer.
- Network Isolation: Every browser runs in an isolated subnet with strict firewalls to prevent lateral movement.
- No Browser Reuse: After each session, the virtual machine is killed and recreated from scratch, ensuring that every browser session is completely fresh.
- No GPU Access: To avoid known security risks associated with shared GPU memory attacks.
Patch Management
- Continuous updates with fast turnaround for critical CVEs
- Chrome versions patched proactively and automatically.
- Compatibility testing for enterprise environments ensures stability across browser updates
Transparent Data Handling
- Zero Data Retention: Disable Logging and Session Recording via the Create Session API to ensure no data is recorded.
- Configurable Browser Regions: Choose your closest data center to minimize latency and ensure data sovereignty
- US West
- US East
- EU (Germany)
- Asia (Singapore)
Guardrails for AI Web Browsing
Browserbase offers AI-assisted browsing via Stagehand—a framework designed for safe, deterministic automation.Stagehand Framework Benefits
- Atomic, auditable steps: Workflows are built as a series of deterministic, cacheable commands
- Self-healing automation: If a selector changes, Stagehand retries using an LLM fallback only for that atomic step
- No full-page hallucinations: Minimizes AI unpredictability by limiting LLM scope
- Prompt Templating: Sensitive data can be parameterized and injected at runtime to avoid LLM exposure
- Bring Your Own Model (BYO-LLM): Maintain full control with your preferred model, keys, and compliance framework
