Turning Commercial Browsers Into Secure Enterprise Products

The rise of browser-based attacks makes it essential for organizations to give browsers the same security controls as operating systems, said Menlo Security's John Wrobel.
Commercial browsers are vulnerable to phishing, malware and ransomware, and Wrobel said vulnerabilities in Chrome, Edge or Safari can be used to launch sophisticated attacks. Instead of replacing the user's existing browser, Wrobel said Menlo uses virtual cloud browser technology to enhance security and ensure malware and ransomware are isolated before they reach the endpoint.
"We actually render all the active content within our service and then mirror that back to the end user without any degradation in user experience, ensuring that nothing bad can come through the browser in any form," Wrobel said.
In this video interview with Information Security Media Group at Black Hat 2024, Wrobel also discussed:
-The top vulnerabilities adversaries exploit in modern browsers;
-Menlo's virtual cloud browser and how it protects against malware;
-The challenges of driving budget for secure browser adoption.
