Abstract
Described embodiments provide systems and methods for providing data loss prevention via an embedded browser. An interprocess communication (IPC) manager may interface with an embedded browser to control the transfer of data from a first application to a second application in accordance with a policy. The IPC manager may detect a command to store data accessed on the first application via the embedded browser and store the data onto a secure container. The secure container may be dedicated to the embedded browser. The IPC manager may subsequently detect a command to retrieve data from the secure container and to replicate the data onto the second application. The IPC manager may determine a policy to apply to the data. The policy may specify whether the data from the first application is permitted to be replicated onto the second application. The IPC manager may subsequently replicate the data on the second application.
