Today’s browser has become the true digital workspace, serving as the central place for accessing apps, workflows, data, and AI-powered services. As Mark Templeton, former CEO of Citrix Systems, noted, “We are on a fast track to an OS-agnostic world where the browser is the computer.”

According to the ESG 2025 survey, 94% of knowledge workers now spend at least half their productive time inside a browser, while 70% routinely access sensitive data across more than six different SaaS applications. Despite this heavy reliance, most enterprise browsers remain dangerously underprotected, creating a significant exposure point for modern threats.

In 2024 alone, 70% of malware attacks originated in browsers. Browser-borne threats, such as phishing, ransomware delivery via malicious extensions, and data leakage, are now among the most serious risks facing enterprises. Two-thirds of security decision-makers cite browser-related risks as a major driver of overall enterprise risk, outnumbering those who view it as minimal by a staggering 13-to-1 margin.
