The browser isn’t only a hub for enterprise operations; it’s unfortunately also become a prime target for cybercriminals, with over 90% of enterprise breaches occurring via the browser. Traditional consumer browsers, designed for personal use, are simply not equipped to deal with the evolving threats that target businesses. That’s where Primary’s Secure Enterprise Browser comes in. Our browser is designed to integrate the most advanced security features to prevent 99% of cyber incidents, with a remarkable level of protection that sets our platform apart.
The Ever-Evolving Threat Landscape
Cybercriminals are evolving their tactics, and the threat landscape continues to grow more complex. In 2024, cyberattacks increasingly target third-party vendors and the software supply chain, as demonstrated in recent high-profile breaches. For example, ransomware groups have homed in on software supply chain vulnerabilities as a prime target for exploitation. The MOVEit software breach, which impacted over 2,000 organizations, is a stark reminder of the importance of securing third-party integrations. Meanwhile, a recent report by Prevalent underscores the urgency of managing third-party cybersecurity risks, with 41% of companies reporting breaches through third-party relationships.
The Primary Secure Enterprise Browser directly addresses these concerns, offering an end-to-end solution that integrates security features designed to mitigate risks from both external and internal threats.
Core Features of the Primary Secure Enterprise Browser
1. Zero Trust Architecture
One of the foundational elements of Primary’s Secure Enterprise Browser is our Zero Trust architecture, which fundamentally shifts how access and security are managed. Unlike older security models, which assume trust within a network, Zero Trust continually verifies every interaction, user, and device, ensuring no unauthorized access. Primary's system goes a step further by dynamically adjusting policies based on real-time user behavior and device telemetry.
For instance, when an employee attempts to access sensitive data from an unrecognized device or location, the browser triggers additional authentication or even blocks access entirely. This granular approach drastically reduces the likelihood of a breach, especially from compromised third-party vendors.
2. Built-In Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)
Stolen credentials and phishing attacks are two of the leading causes of data breaches. In 2024, phishing-as-a-service (PhaaS) operations have become more sophisticated, making strong authentication methods even more critical. Primary addresses this by integrating MFA directly into the browser and continuously verifying users through identity providers like Okta and Azure AD. Even if a malicious actor manages to obtain user credentials, MFA serves as an extra layer of protection that keeps your enterprise data safe.
3. Anti-Malware and Real-Time Threat Detection
With ransomware attacks now making headlines almost daily, it’s critical to have a proactive approach to malware prevention. Primary enables XDR by monitoring and aggregating data across endpoints (browser), the network, cloud services, and web applications. This system supports real-time threat detection and ensures that organizations have the data needed to respond to potential breaches. By leveraging real-time monitoring and AI-driven detection, Primary minimizes vulnerabilities that cybercriminals could use to infiltrate enterprise networks.
4. Automated Updates and Patch Management
Outdated software is one of the most common vulnerabilities exploited by attackers. Primary ensures that enterprises never fall behind on updates by automating the patch management process, keeping every component of the browser up-to-date with the latest security patches. This proactive approach minimizes the attack surface and ensures vulnerabilities are quickly addressed before they can be exploited.
5. Data Protection and Governance
Data protection is at the heart of Primary’s architecture. From encryption at rest and in transit to Data Loss Prevention (DLP) techniques, We make sure your sensitive data is always secure. Administrators can monitor and restrict data movement in real time, preventing unauthorized exports and transfers. This capability is critical in industries like healthcare and finance, where third-party breaches are frequent due to the vast amount of sensitive data exchanged between vendors.
The browser also provides detailed visibility into user activity, offering administrators the tools they need to conduct root-cause analysis in the event of a breach. This level of transparency enhances security and helps organizations maintain compliance with regulations such as GDPR and CCPA.
Why Primary Is the Solution for Enterprise Security
With 75% of enterprise work being conducted in browsers, companies can no longer afford to rely on consumer-grade tools. Primary’s Secure Enterprise Browser delivers a comprehensive solution designed to mitigate evolving threats, such as software supply chain attacks and ransomware. By integrating advanced security features like Zero Trust architecture, real-time threat detection, and robust data governance, Primary does what no other platform can do.
As the threat landscape shifts, taking proactive steps to secure your most vulnerable access points is critical. If you need the confidence that comes from blocking 99% of cybersecurity threats, reach out and schedule a demo.
