Browser Isolation seems to be a growing topic and looks very promising and I also see that Checkpoint partners with Eircom, but will browser isolation be introduced or added as a feature to Odo.

Might be a good question to ask during our TechTalk next week 🙂

In general, it’s not new technology.
We had a similar technology in our Endpoint years ago.
A few years ago, a company called Fireglass offered this technology, which was acquired by Symantec.
Not sure why it hasn’t caught on.

It is being mentioned quite a bit in regards to SASE and has some good use cases such as when accessing uncategorized sites, accessing URLs within emails, isolating that problem user and of course mitigating drive by downloads, malvertising, etc.,

Agree, it has some good potential use cases.
That said, I don't believe it's on the short-term roadmap.
