Dynamic remote browsing

A method for managing one or more browsing tabs of one or more browsing sessions on an electronic device, the method comprising, during a browsing session:

• determining whether to process one or more browsing tabs locally on the electronic device based on one or more parameters associated with a status of the electronic device;
• when it is determined to process the one or more browsing tabs locally, performing the one or more browsing tabs locally on the electronic device;
• and
• when it is determined not to process the one or more browsing tabs locally, processing a request for the one or more browsing tabs at a remote server or migrating the one or more browsing tabs to the remote server to perform the one or more browsing tabs remotely on the remote server;
• wherein at least one of the one or more parameters relates to security of the electronic device and comprises at least one of:
• a security feed received from an agent that monitors the electronic device;
• and
• security data that indicates suspicious activity detected on the electronic device or that indicates a vulnerability of a browser of the electronic device on which the browsing session is performed.

• and
• when it is determined not to process the one or more browsing tabs locally, processing a request for the one or more browsing tabs at a remote server or migrating the one or more browsing tabs to the remote server to perform the one or more browsing tabs remotely on the remote server;
• wherein
• at least one of the one or more parameters relates to security of the electronic device and comprises at least one of:
• whether the electronic device is jailbroken;
• whether a malicious application is installed on the electronic device;
• or
• whether a mandated security application is installed and running on the electronic device.

A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of an electronic device, cause the electronic device to perform a method for managing one or more browsing tabs of one or more browsing sessions on the electronic device, the method comprising, during a browsing session:

• receiving, from a processor of the electronic device, a message indicating a value for a parameter associated with a status of the electronic device;
• for each respective browsing tab of the one or more browsing tabs, determining whether to process the respective browsing tab locally on the electronic device based on the value for the parameter;
• when it is determined to process the one or more browsing tabs locally, performing the one or more browsing tabs locally on the electronic device;
• and
• when it is determined not to process the one or more browsing tabs locally, processing a request for the one or more browsing tabs at a remote server or migrating the one or more browsing tabs to the remote server to perform the one or more browsing tabs remotely on the remote server;
• wherein
• determining whether to process the respective browsing tab locally comprises determining not to process the respective browsing tab locally in response to determining that the respective tab is high-consumption for the parameter and that the value indicates the electronic device is running low on a resource associated with the parameter.

A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of an electronic device, cause the electronic device to perform a method for managing one or more browsing tabs of one or more browsing sessions on the electronic device, the method comprising, during a browsing session:

• determining whether to process one or more browsing tabs of a plurality of browsing tabs locally on the electronic device based on one or more parameters associated with a status of the electronic device;
• when it is determined to process the one or more browsing tabs locally, performing the one or more browsing tabs locally on the electronic device;
• and
• when it is determined not to process the one or more browsing tabs locally, sending a request for the one or more browsing tabs to a remote server or migrating the one or more browsing tabs to the remote server to perform the one or more browsing tabs remotely on the remote server;
• wherein at least one of the one or more parameters relates to security of the electronic device and comprises at least one of:
• a security feed received from an agent that monitors the electronic device;
• and
• security data that indicates suspicious activity detected on the electronic device or that indicates a vulnerability of a browser of the electronic device on which the browsing session is performed.

An electronic device, comprising:

• a memory;
• and
• at least one processor coupled to the memory, the at least one processor being configured to, during a browsing session comprising one or more browsing tabs:
• receive, from a processor of the electronic device, a message indicating a value for a parameter associated with a status of the electronic device;
• for each respective browsing tab of the one or more browsing tabs, determine whether to process the respective browsing tab locally on the electronic device based on the value for the parameter;
• when it is determined to process the one or more browsing tabs locally, perform the one or more browsing tabs locally on the electronic device;
• and
• when it is determined not to process the one or more browsing tabs locally, process a request for the one or more browsing tabs at a remote server or migrating the one or more browsing tabs to the remote server to perform the one or more browsing tabs remotely on the remote server;
• wherein
• determining whether to process the respective browsing tab locally comprises determining not to process the respective browsing tab locally in response to determining that the respective tab is high-consumption for the parameter and that the value indicates the electronic device is running low on a resource associated with the parameter.
