||
|
||
[Island](https://www.island.io/) is an enterprise-grade browser, offering a
|
||
Chromium-based experience similar to popular web browsers like Chrome and Edge.
|
||
It includes built-in security features for corporate applications and data,
|
||
aiming to bridge the gap between consumer-focused browsers and the security
|
||
needs of the enterprise.
|
||
|
||
Coder natively integrates with Island's feature set, which include data loss
|
||
protection (DLP), application awareness, browser session recording, and single
|
||
sign-on (SSO). This guide intends to document these feature categories and how
|
||
they apply to your Coder deployment.
|
||
|
||
## General Configuration
|
||
|
||
### Create an Application Group for Coder
|
||
|
||
We recommend creating an Application Group specific to Coder in the Island
|
||
Management console. This Application Group object will be referenced when
|
||
creating browser policies.
|
||
|
||
[See the Island documentation for creating an Application Group](https://documentation.island.io/docs/create-and-configure-an-application-group-object).
|
||
|
||
## Advanced Data Loss Protection
|
||
|
||
Integrate Island's advanced data loss prevention (DLP) capabilities with Coder's
|
||
cloud development environment (CDE), enabling you to control the “last mile”
|
||
between developers’ CDE and their local devices, ensuring that sensitive IP
|
||
remains in your centralized environment.
|
||
|
||
### Block cut, copy, paste, printing, screen share
|
||
|
||
1. [Create a Data Sandbox Profile](https://documentation.island.io/docs/create-and-configure-a-data-sandbox-profile)
|
||
|
||
1. Configure the following actions to allow/block (based on your security
|
||
requirements):
|
||
|
||
- Screenshot and Screen Share
|
||
- Printing
|
||
- Save Page
|
||
- Clipboard Limitations
|
||
|
||
1. [Create a Policy Rule](https://documentation.island.io/docs/create-and-configure-a-policy-rule-general)
|
||
to apply the Data Sandbox Profile
|
||
|
||
1. Define the Coder Application group as the Destination Object
|
||
|
||
1. Define the Data Sandbox Profile as the Action in the Last Mile Protection
|
||
section
|
||
|
||
### Conditionally allow copy on Coder's CLI authentication page
|
||
|
||
1. [Create a URL Object](https://documentation.island.io/docs/create-and-configure-a-policy-rule-general)
|
||
with the following configuration:
|
||
|
||
- **Include**
|
||
- **URL type**: Wildcard
|
||
- **URL address**: `coder.example.com/cli-auth`
|
||
- **Casing**: Insensitive
|
||
|
||
1. [Create a Data Sandbox Profile](https://documentation.island.io/docs/create-and-configure-a-data-sandbox-profile)
|
||
|
||
1. Configure action to allow copy/paste
|
||
|
||
1. [Create a Policy Rule](https://documentation.island.io/docs/create-and-configure-a-policy-rule-general)
|
||
to apply the Data Sandbox Profile
|
||
|
||
1. Define the URL Object you created as the Destination Object
|
||
|
||
1. Define the Data Sandbox Profile as the Action in the Last Mile Protection
|
||
section
|
||
|
||
### Prevent file upload/download from the browser
|
||
|
||
1. Create a Protection Profiles for both upload/download
|
||
|
||
- [Upload documentation](https://documentation.island.io/docs/create-and-configure-an-upload-protection-profile)
|
||
- [Download documentation](https://documentation.island.io/v1/docs/en/create-and-configure-a-download-protection-profile)
|
||
|
||
1. [Create a Policy Rule](https://documentation.island.io/docs/create-and-configure-a-policy-rule-general)
|
||
to apply the Protection Profiles
|
||
|
||
1. Define the Coder Application group as the Destination Object
|
||
|
||
1. Define the applicable Protection Profile as the Action in the Data Protection
|
||
section
|
||
|
||
### Scan files for sensitive data
|
||
|
||
1. [Create a Data Loss Prevention scanner](https://documentation.island.io/docs/create-a-data-loss-prevention-scanner)
|
||
|
||
1. [Create a Policy Rule](https://documentation.island.io/docs/create-and-configure-a-policy-rule-general)
|
||
to apply the DLP Scanner
|
||
|
||
1. Define the Coder Application group as the Destination Object
|
||
|
||
1. Define the DLP Scanner as the Action in the Data Protection section
|
||
|
||
## Application Awareness and Boundaries
|
||
|
||
Ensure that Coder is only accessed through the Island browser, guaranteeing that
|
||
your browser-level DLP policies are always enforced, and developers can’t
|
||
sidestep such policies simply by using another browser.
|
||
|
||
### Configure browser enforcement, conditional access policies
|
||
|
||
1. Create a conditional access policy for your configured identity provider.
|
||
|
||
> Note: the configured IdP must be the same for both Coder and Island
|
||
|
||
- [Azure Active Directory/Entra ID](https://documentation.island.io/docs/configure-browser-enforcement-for-island-with-azure-ad#create-and-apply-a-conditional-access-policy)
|
||
- [Okta](https://documentation.island.io/docs/configure-browser-enforcement-for-island-with-okta)
|
||
- [Google](https://documentation.island.io/docs/configure-browser-enforcement-for-island-with-google-enterprise)
|
||
|
||
## Browser Activity Logging
|
||
|
||
Govern and audit in-browser terminal and IDE sessions using Island, such as
|
||
screenshots, mouse clicks, and keystrokes.
|
||
|
||
### Activity Logging Module
|
||
|
||
1. [Create an Activity Logging Profile](https://documentation.island.io/docs/create-and-configure-an-activity-logging-profile)
|
||
|
||
Supported browser events include:
|
||
|
||
- Web Navigation
|
||

|
||
- File Upload
|
||
- Clipboard/Drag & Drop
|
||
- Print
|
||
- Save As
|
||
- Screenshots
|
||

|
||
- Keystrokes
|
||
|
||

|
||
to apply the Activity Logging Profile
|
||
|
||
1. Define the Coder Application group as the Destination Object
|
||
|
||
1. Define the Activity Logging Profile as the Action in the Security &
|
||
Visibility section
|
||
|
||
## Identity-aware logins (SSO)
|
||
|
||
Integrate Island's identity management system with Coder's authentication
|
||
mechanisms to enable identity-aware logins.
|
||
|
||
### Configure single sign-on (SSO) seamless authentication between Coder and Island
|
||
|
||
Configure the same identity provider (IdP) for both your Island and Coder
|
||
deployment. Upon initial login to the Island browser, the user's session token
|
||
will automatically be passed to Coder and authenticate their Coder session.
