Distributed split browser content inspection and analysis

Distributed split browser content inspection and analysis are described. A server, comprising a browser engine, stores a definition of sets of browser policies. A definition of one or more sets of users is stored. The server stores an association with a respective set of browser policies for the one or more sets of users. A request is received from a client browser associated with a user, wherein the client browser is configured to communicate with the server browser engine. The server determines which set of users the user is associated with. The server identifies a first set of browser policies that is associated with the determined set of users and applies the identified first set of browser policies to the request. A determination is made, for one or more browser processes, which browser processes are to be executed by the server browser engine and which browser processes are to be executed by the client browser.
