VSTECS, a leading technology distribution company, has been named as the official distributor of Menlo Security in the Philippines. This collaboration is geared toward tackling the critical challenges surrounding browser security, an increasingly vital aspect in today’s digital environment.

In the ever-evolving digital landscape, web browsers have emerged as the primary enterprise application. The distributed nature of work, facilitated by web applications and Software as a Service (SaaS) platforms, empowers a diverse workforce, decentralized partner networks, and distributed supply chains. However, this shift has not gone unnoticed by malicious actors.

A recent Forrester report highlights that enterprise employees spend a 75% of their device time in web browsers. Unfortunately, this extensive usage has made browsers a prime target for threat actors seeking unauthorized access to networks. The Verizon 2022 Data Breach Investigation Report (DBIR) underscores that web applications and email, primarily accessed through web browsers, constitute the primary attack vectors in security breaches, accounting for over 80% of incidents.

Despite significant investments in cybersecurity, web browsers remain the least protected attack surface in the enterprise. Traditional network and endpoint security solutions fall short of providing comprehensive visibility and control over browser-based threats, resulting in a significant security gap.
