Browser Security Platforms

The editors at Solutions Review have compiled this list of the best browser security platforms to consider at the enterprise level.

Browser security as part of a cybersecurity suite is not new. Browser security as its own dedicated platform? For enterprises? That’s a whole new beast. Thankfully these vendors recognize one of the most often overlooked points of entry in an enterprise’s security, and made browser security the focal point of their platform. Whether as its own dedicated enterprise browser, a browser isolation console, or a versatile extension that works with the browser of your choice without having to run a separate app– these are the best browser security solutions to consider at the enterprise level.

Vendors are listed in alphabetical order. While a number of vendors offer browser security as part of a suite, the following vendors were selected based their solution being a stand-alone product or at least capable of being deployed separately from a larger suite.
