Spikes Security's AirGap Browser: Internet Safety at a Distance - Businessweek

"He founded Spikes Security in 2012, and the company officially came out of stealth mode this week with its AirGap browser technology. The basic premise here is that instead of running a browser directly on your PC, laptop, or mobile device, you run it inside a Spikes Security data center. The company keeps the browser software on its servers and then essentially streams a video of your experience using the browser to your computer; anything nasty you click on can’t infect your computer because the browser software is running elsewhere. “The Web page gets built in the cloud, and you sort of watch a movie of it,” says Spikes. “You have total isolation from any malware.”"
