I am researching test automation tools to propose at my company. We work in a secure environment so we require that any generated code is not accessible to the Internet. If the tool or even a subset of its functionality requires Internet access, that functionality is not useable to us. Does Katalon Studio satisfy this requirement?

If you have an annual KSE license, then you can activate KSE offline. The plugins are also available to be used in an offline environment. Likewise, a KRE license can also be used to activate Runtime Engine (to execute tests in console mode for CI/CD) offline.
