  • Browser-based attacks have surged, with over 85% of enterprise workloads projected to be browser-accessed by 2027.
  • Traditional endpoint security is insufficient as modern browsers execute code locally, allowing rapid attacks.
  • AI has increased the complexity of threats, necessitating a focus on securing browser activity in enterprises.

As enterprise work increasingly shifts to the browser, it has become a major target for cyberattacks. Reports indicate a surge in browser-based attacks over the past two years, with Gartner projecting that over 85% of enterprise workloads will be browser-accessed by 2027. Traditional endpoint security measures are inadequate as modern browsers execute code locally, allowing attacks to occur before detection tools can respond. AI has exacerbated this issue by facilitating the automation of attacks and increasing the volume of sensitive data interactions within browser sessions. Enterprises must now focus on securing browser activity to protect data without disrupting user experience. The challenge is compounded by employees accessing data from various devices and using third-party AI models, making it crucial to govern browser activity effectively.
