About Browser Protection Profiles
Browser Protection profiles allow you to determine how traffic is inspected and managed for browser sessions. Each Browser Protection profile consists of selected browser and operating system attributes. After a Browser Protection profile has been created, then you need to create a Browser Protection policy to allow the related browsers and operating systems within the Browser Protection profile to be inspected.
Browser Protection profiles enhance your experience by enabling you to:
- Curate the attributes used to create a unique browser fingerprint for each user's browser access session (e.g., OS name, browser engine version, user agent string, geolocation, etc.).
- Exclude the attributes that should not be used to create a fingerprint.
After creating a Browser Protection profile, add it to a Browser Protection policy for the ZPA service to use. To learn more, see About Browser Protection Policy.
