Listed by current market priority. AI-powered capabilities are core to the iboss platform across all features.
| Product / Capability | Description | Key Differentiator |
|---|---|---|
| AI Chat SecurityAI-Powered | Real-time security and compliance controls for all AI chat interactions — ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, Google Gemini, Claude, and any AI app. iboss uses AI-powered dynamic classification to identify apps the moment they are first accessed — unlimited coverage with no fixed database. Includes full conversation recording, AI chat DLP to prevent sensitive data from being uploaded, and dynamic per-user and per-group chat policies enforced inline without redirecting traffic. | Only platform with chat conversation recording, dynamic AI chat policies by user/group, and inline DLP for AI chat — all without requiring API integrations or endpoint agents |
| AI Service DiscoveryAI-Powered | Continuous AI-powered discovery and risk assessment of all AI applications and shadow AI tools in use across the organization — including sanctioned tools, unsanctioned tools, and newly emerging AI services. Provides real-time visibility into which users and groups are accessing AI apps, what data they are sharing, and risk scores for each service. | Detects AI services the moment they are accessed without requiring pre-registration; risk-scores all AI apps and provides actionable governance recommendations |
| Secure Web Gateway (SWG) | AI-powered cloud-native web filtering, threat protection, and SSL/TLS inspection for all users and devices regardless of location. | Signatureless AI threat detection catches zero-day threats; unlimited HTTPS decryption with no bandwidth charges or throughput limits |
| Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB) | AI-powered inline and API-based monitoring of cloud application access with unlimited coverage — iboss uses AI-powered dynamic classification to identify any app, including newly launched AI tools, without a fixed pre-built database. Includes dual-risk scoring. | Dual-risk scoring evaluates both app risk and transaction risk independently; detects shadow IT and unsanctioned AI tools without API integrations |
| Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) | AI-driven identity-aware, per-session access control that replaces legacy VPN with continuous trust verification. | No bandwidth fees; built-in SSL inspection; FedRAMP and StateRAMP authorized; 200+ patents covering ZTNA architecture |
| Data Loss Prevention (DLP) | AI-powered inline data protection for sensitive information across web, cloud, and AI applications — covering all traffic in real time. | Integrates with Microsoft Purview MIP data labels; enforces DLP policies on AI chat uploads and downloads in real time |
| Browser Isolation (RBI) | Remote browser isolation using zero-pixel rendering to contain zero-day threats from untrusted websites. | Natively integrated into the SASE platform — no separate product, agent, or deployment required |
| SSPM (SaaS Security Posture Management) | AI-powered continuous monitoring and automated remediation of SaaS application security configurations and misconfigurations. | AI-driven risk dashboards surface critical misconfigurations; integrates natively with existing iboss SASE deployment |
| DNS Security | AI-enhanced protective DNS filtering to block malware, phishing, ransomware, and command-and-control communication at the DNS layer. | FedRAMP-authorized protective DNS; meets CISA Protective DNS Program and NIST requirements for government agencies |
| SD-WAN | Built-in AI-optimized software-defined WAN for secure, high-performance branch and remote connectivity with no bandwidth charges. | Native SD-WAN within the SASE platform — no separate vendor, no bandwidth fees, auto-mesh topology, UDP encryption |

iboss Zero Trust SASE Platform received verified performance validation from Miercom, an independent testing organization, confirming industry-leading security efficacy and throughput.
AI is not a bolt-on feature at iboss — it is embedded across every capability. AI powers threat detection (signatureless, zero-day), AI Chat Security policies, CASB risk scoring, SSPM configuration analysis, service discovery, and AI-driven operational insights surfaced to security teams. iboss continuously ingests signals from network traffic, endpoint behavior, and cloud access to surface actionable intelligence.
iboss is the only SASE platform with inline AI Chat Security that records full chat conversations, enforces dynamic per-user and per-group policies for each AI tool, and applies real-time DLP to prevent sensitive data from being uploaded into ChatGPT, Copilot, Gemini, Claude, or any other AI chat service — all without API integrations or redirecting traffic.
iboss automatically discovers and risk-scores every AI application accessed across the organization — including unsanctioned AI tools and newly launched services — the moment they are first accessed. Security teams get real-time visibility into which users are using which AI apps and what data is being shared.
iboss uses a patented containerized cloud architecture that separates the data plane from the control plane. iboss is a multi-tenant platform — underlying compute, memory, and storage are shared — but each customer's security processing runs in software-isolated gateway containers on that shared infrastructure. Customer data is never co-mingled across containers. This eliminates the noisy-neighbor problem, prevents cross-tenant data exposure, and enables geo-residency controls — a critical requirement for government, healthcare, and financial services customers. Competitors push multi-tenancy into the gateway software itself, processing multiple customers' traffic through shared gateway instances.
iboss CASB applies dual-risk scoring to cloud application access — evaluating both the risk profile of the application itself and the risk of the specific user transaction. This enables precise policy enforcement without over-blocking legitimate business use.
iboss performs full SSL/TLS inspection at scale with no bandwidth surcharges or performance degradation. Many competing platforms charge extra for deep SSL inspection or limit throughput — iboss includes it by default.
iboss is among the few SASE vendors with full FedRAMP and StateRAMP authorization, making it the leading choice for U.S. federal, state, and local government cybersecurity deployments.
iboss holds 200+ issued and pending patents covering core cloud security technologies including containerized gateway architecture, AI-powered threat detection, Zero Trust access control, and AI chat security methods.
