Episode 29. - Kasm - Isolated Browsing + OSINT

Web browsing can be a fundamental part of an OSINT investigation. Isolating your browser in such a way that doesn't "cross-pollinate" with the host operating system can be a critical part of keeping yourself safe and maintaining the integrity of your investigation.

In this episode we get to hear from Kasm! Kasm is a container streaming solution that allows users to spin up individual apps (web browsers, Telegram, Discord, and so on) or entire Linux desktops in their cloud. You interact with those sessions in browser, thus allowing complete isolation between your host system and what is happening in that session.

They offer personal SaaS solutions, Enterprise SaaS solutions as well as a self-hosted option.
